fTEXAS STAR LANES

champs Skyler McGowan & Ethan Siu; Leah Glazer, TJ Rock

        Skyler McGowan and Ethan Siu wrapped up the 2018-19 JBT Mojave Conference regular season with exciting wins at Texas Star Lanes.

        McGowan won three close games in the scratch division stepladder.  He began with a 221-216 squeaker over Andrew Guba.  He then got by a close match against Zack Long to face top seed TJ Rock.  Rock looked locked in, especially after a tough 4-9 from McGowan.  Skyler struck out from there though, forcing TJ to strike to win.  Rock threw what appeared to be a perfect shot, but a stubborn 7-pin stood, giving McGowan the 223-218 thriller win and third career JBT title.

        Red-hot Lindsay Greim began the handicap stepladder with a 224-199 win over Gavin Holter.  It takes a big number to beat any Greim these days, and Zack Gonzalez came up with just that in the semis, stopping Lindsay 295-245 to advance to the final. 

        Top seed Ethan Siu was enjoying an amazing first JBT event, and had enough in the tank for a 243-213 win and the title.  It was also just enough points to squeak into the following day's Mojave Invitational, where he could parlay things into a $1,000 win!

        Rock was consoled with the day's U17 win, while Priority Girls Scratch went to Leah Glazer, back from college, defeating rising star Vanessa Fuzie 210-191.

        Big thanks as always to the incomparable Jerry Francomano and the team at Texas for hosting us.  The field is now set for the Mojave Invitational, where over $5,000 will be awarded to the field!
