TENPINS & MORE

champ Geoffrey Young & runner-up Ryan Scheer

       Geoffrey Young completed a dominant weekend with a win in scratch-only action at Tenpins & More. 

      Young qualified first after five games of matchplay qualifying for the 16-person finals bracket, then swept #16 Jerod Florez in round one.  #2 Matt Helmick and #3 Ryan Scheer also advanced, but #4 Matt Jones was upset 2-0 by #13 Jess Gagliardi.

      In the round of eight, Young escaped a tough match against #8 Nick Lee 2-1; #10 William Entsminger made his 7th top-5 in 8 events this season with a 2-0 sweep over Gagliardi; Scheer swept #6 Brian Ballard 2-0 (including a tiebreak win in game one); and Helmick swept #5 Tim Crites 2--0.

    In one-game semifinal matches, Young beat Entsminger 236-194, and Scheer beat friend, co-worker, and high school teammate Helmick 216-194, to reachhis first scratch division title match.

   Ryan bowled very well in the title match but could not catch a double, while Young had enough left for a 216-194 win, and his 6th career JBT title, 3 of them coming here at Tenpins.
