KINGPINS

champs Ryan Nikolas & Alexa Lanning (center) with U17 winner Tyger Miller & girls winner Kelsey Abrahamsen

        Two veterans added JBT titles to their collections in exciting Pacific Northwest Conference action at Portland's amazing new Kingpins.

        Johnny Leggett began the 'sprint' scratch stepladder finals with a 233-213 win over Andy Herrmann, who is off to a fine start on the new season.  Previous day's champ Chris Tuholski then defeated Leggett 244-128, and advanced to try and sweep the weekend against top seed Ryan Nikolas.

        Ryan fired the weekend's only 300 game earlier in qualifying, and he and Tuholski have placed themselves well ahead of the pack thus far in the new season.  This time, Nikolas left no doubt who would come out on top, as he blasted ten strikes in a 267-205 win over Tuholski, good for the 13th title of his JBT career.

        Alyssa Bradley squeezed out a 191-188 win over Sara Harris to open the all-female handicap division stepladder.  2014 Main Event champ Alexa Lanning then beat Bradley 234-200 to advance to the title match.

        Top seed Reagan Lorey might have been inspired by younger brother Jonathan's JBT win at Acme last month, as she stormed to the top seed here on the back of the two highest handicap games of the tournament.  However, the veteran Lanning put a stop to Reagan's run with a 233-216 win in a well bowled match by both players.  It's the second title of Lanning's JBT career.

        Tyger Miller's solid weekend was capped off with a 218-181 win over Leggett for the day's U17 crown, while Kelsey Abrahamsen swept the girls scratch weekend with another win over AJ Schock, this time by a 194-173 count.
