The 60-and-Over Bowling Tour has been infused with some serious sponsor cash and merchandise as it nears the start of its eight-tournament season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Formerly known as the Tommy Kress 60-and-Over Tour, the scratch singles circuit for \u201csenior\u201d keglers has secured Batavia Downs Gaming as the title sponsor for at least the next two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tour Treasurer Patrick Donaghue of Pittsford, a Batavia native, and his fellow advisory committee members did a super job of attracting other sponsors, too, while incorporating rules\u2019 revisions that should sit well with the competitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first of the eight Sunday tournaments is set for 1 p.m. Oct. 6 at ABC Gates Bowl in Rochester, with registration starting at noon. All of the other tournaments will begin at 11 a.m. with check-in starting at 10 a.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three Genesee Region USBC bowling centers \u2013 Mancuso Bowling Center in Batavia, Oak Orchard Bowl in Albion and Medina Lanes — will be hosting tournaments this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is the complete schedule:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

— Oct. 6, ABC Gates Bowl.
— Oct. 27, Doug Kent\u2019s Rose Bowl Lanes, Newark.
— Nov. 17, Mancuso Bowling Center, Batavia.
— Dec. 8, Oak Orchard Bowl, Albion.
— Jan. 26, Transit Lanes, Williamsville.
— Feb. 23, Medina Lanes.
— March 9, Brockport Bowl.
— April 6, Pleasure Lanes, Hilton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pete Nashburn of West Irondequoit and his daughter, Donna Weber, will be returning to run each tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All of the events, except Brockport Bowl, feature a three-game qualifier with 16 bowlers advancing to the finals — the top 10 overall scores plus the top two scores not in the top 10 from three \u201cincentive\u201d age groups \u2013 65-69, 70-74 and 75 and over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One in three bowlers will cash.  Entry fee is $60.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ANOTHER GEM FOR BRIAN CLINE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cline, 46, rolled games of 219, 269 and 300 for a 788 series on lanes 3-4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to bowl.com, Cline has bowled 70 perfect games and 45 800 series since August 2001. Remarkable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
