Dave Ryan

Dave Ryan

Dave Ryan is a play-by-play announcer and reporter for ESPN. He is mostly known for calling PBA bowling events on the network alongside color analyst Randy Pedersen from 2002-2007. He calls other non-marquee sporting events on ESPN and its sister networks, such as lacrosse and the semifinals of the Little League World Series. In addition, he occasionally serves as a college football sideline reporter and a college basketball announcer. His signature phrases on bowling telecasts were "60 feet to success!" and "He's got all ten down." Some bowling fans criticized him for calling pins by a number, such as "number seven" instead of saying "the seven pin." Ryan was replaced by Rob Stone for PBA telecasts in 2007, but he has continued to call other bowling events on occasion, such as women's tournaments and college tournaments.

Dave Ryan's name is on a fairly short list of bowling play-by-play announcers, with Chris Schenkel being the most well-known after he spent 36 years calling PBA events for ABC. Denny Schreiner (ESPN), Jay Randolph (NBC/ESPN2), Mike Durbin (ESPN), and Dick Stockton (HBO) have also served as play-by-play announcers for bowling telecasts.
