Pahrump perfect: Evans rolls his 5th 300 game at Pahrump Nugget Bowling Center

Jim Evans rolled a perfect game Jan. 23 at the Pahrump Nugget Bowling Center.

Evans rolled games of 208 and 204 before getting the 300 in his final game of a 712 series. Evans had flirted with perfection one week earlier, rolling nine consecutive strikes before settling for a 278.

He actually rolled a better series that night, riding eight consecutive strikes to a 246 in his opening game and finishing with a 733 series.

Bowling center manager Lorie Hartwell said the perfect game was the Evans’ fifth.
