SUNSET LANES

champs and finalists

            Josh Abigania and Braeden Doolin picked up JBT titles in our Tour's initial visit to Utah, in exciting Mojave Conference action at Sunset Lanes in St. George.

            Finalists bowled a modified two-game stepladder, with the 4-3-2 seeds all playing in order to face the top qualifier.  In the scratch division, the 3 seed Josh Abigania doubled in the tenth frame for a 181 game that was just enough to edge Dominic Montoya's 178 and Cole Telford's 151.  Top seed Riley Woodard, the 2020 Main Event champion, had impressed again here, but could not get comfortable on the title match pair, while Josh was clutch with strikes in the tenth frame once again, earning his 7th career JBT title with the 211-178 win over Riley.

            In the handicap division, the 2 seed defended their place, as Braeden Doolin's 235 effort got past Sterling Smith's 212 and Austin Nash's 225.  A fellow Las Vegan, Ryann Clark, led the event with solid bowling all day in search of her second title.  However, she struggled in the final game while Doolin got more confident with each shot, eventually pulling away with the win for his first career JBT title.

            Daryus Alo picked up the day's U17 victory with a win over Brandon Rother, while Utah's Lizzy Rees beat Kendall Bollea for the girls scratch subdivision win.  Huge thanks to the team at Sunset for an outstanding job hosting our Tour for the first but definitely not the last time.  Want in on all this fun for all ages and skill levels?  Just check out our schedules and come on down!

Dress code:  Anything goes EXCEPT tank tops, gym shorts, clothing promoting alcohol, drugs, or firearms, or excessively ripped or short clothing, subject solely to the director's discretion.  However, bowlers wearing slacks or dress shorts/skirts, and a 'name shirt' or PBA-style 'dye-sub' shirt, or college or high school team shirt, earn an extra 10 points on their season-long points total.  If you're not sure about dress code, check with us.  If you're new to us, the vast majority of the bowlers do dress in the 'bonus' dress code, and those points become very important, so plan accordingly.

RESERVED BOWLERS:
