Performance of the Week: Holt's David Schaberg
March 2, 2022
David Schaberg ♦ Holt
Bowling ♦ Senior
Schaberg bowled a six-game 1,530 series that not only won his Division 1 Regional on Saturday but was the highest Regional score in any division last weekend and one of only two above 1,500. He averaged 255 at Royal Scot in Lansing with a pair of 279 high games. He will return to the Singles Final this Saturday at Thunderbowl Lanes in Allen Park after reaching the match play semifinals and falling just four pins shy of advancing to the championship match in 2021.
A two-handed bowler who made the technical change over the last year, Schaberg is averaging 232 during high school competition this season. He bowled his eighth lifetime 300 this winter and has a high two-game high school series of 534. Schaberg also made the Division 1 Final match play as a sophomore, reaching the quarterfinals. He’ll first compete Friday with his team, as the Rams advanced to the Team Final with a third-place finish at the Regional.

Be the Referee: Bowling Pins

Be The Referee is a series of short messages designed to help educate people on the rules of different sports, to help them better understand the art of officiating, and to recruit officials.
Below is this week's segment – Bowling Pins - Listen
We’re back on the bowling lane today, ready to throw our first ball of the third frame. Strikes were recorded in each of the first two frames, and we’re now one strike away from a turkey.
We roll a perfect ball that hits the pocket with power and sends all 10 pins flying. What a shot! Three strikes in a row … so we think.
Once the pins settle, we notice that one pin bounced off the side wall and landed upright back on the lane, like it had never been touched. But we know it was knocked down to begin with. Is this a strike, or a 9?
Get your spare ball ready – it’s a 9. If a pin is still standing after your throw, no matter how, it’s still considered a standing pin.
