(MENAFN- Arab News) RIYADH: All eyes were on defending champion Riyad Bank team but it was BSF and SABB teams mentored by Jun Bantug and Ahmed Qarquosh that took the center stage during the first two weeks of the 2015 Interbank Tenpin Bowling League.
BSF's outstanding performance registered a towering overall series with handicap of 3695 pinfalls to romp off with the coveted Team of the Week award and claim the top spot on opening day of the Interbank Tenpin Bowlers of Riyadh new season.

Saudi Hollandi Bank grabbed the third game and got even on the fourth. Straight bowler Gerry Ayonon hit best form to grab the Bowler of the Week plum shooting the high series of 869 on lines of 232 223 200 and 214. He was supported by team captain Greg Antonio and Clem Salazar on 832 and 698 respectively. Val Baraquio downed 488 in three games while Cholo Nieto and Eckart Gayeta rolled 341 and 305.
