Chase Cone of Bergen experienced the thrill of a United States Bowling Congress-certified 300 game this week when he strung 12 consecutive strikes in the opening game of the Tuesday Night Coed League at Mancuso Bowling Center in Batavia.
The 37-year-old right-hander registered a perfect game a couple years ago, but it was in a non-certified league at Mancuso's.
By rolling a 300 game in a certified league, he can claim his ring from the USBC.
Using a Brunswick Infinity bowling ball, Cone put all 12 shots in the 1-3 pocket, finishing on lane 13. He added games of 236 and 208 for a 744 series.
Employed as a damage prevention tech at Bermex Inc. in Rochester, Cone's previous high certified game was 279.
