I've bowled with Fairley alot in college and junior tournaments and it couldn't have happened to a better guy.  He really bowled well and its nice to see someone you know pretty well bowl great at such a high level.  He's also having an MVP season at V-Tech.  It was funny, just at the college tournament a week before the Team USA trials I was talking to him and he said he wanted to try Brunswick since he was using Ebonite exclusively for the past 2-3 years and he wanted to get on Brunswick's staff but he didn't think he was "Good Enough".  Well after winning the Colgate Invitational averaging 240+ and winning the Amatuer Championships in back to back weeks, along with being a former JR. Team USA member, I'm sure his resume is impressive enough so I expect the "B" to be knocking at his door any day now.

I agree with DP3, we've bowled a couple college tournaments against Vtech and Richard and he's always been a great guy to bowl with/against.  Couldn't be happier for a guy to be the amateur champion.  As far as Brunswick goes, i didn't know he had been using any either until i read their website.  I remember in the past him throwin ebonite.  I agree that Brunwick would be making a good investment by scooping him.  Good luck and hope to congradulate him at the next tournament.
