WINDERMERE REAL ESTATE OPEN at AMF TEMPE VILLAGE

champs BJ Baker & Kyle Smith

A large field means more bowlers to compete against for the top spot, but that didn't intimidate BJ Baker or Kyle Smith, as they claimed JBT SW titles with excellent performances.

In the scratch division, Greg Garbera made his scratch finals debut a success with a 237 game that was enough to defeat Kevin Saunders (222) and Miguel Lopez (212).  Greg came up with a 214 in round two that beat Chris Ingram (201) and Mike Hayes (170).  Greg then ran into two lefties in the number 2 and 3 spots, and Baker's 246 was plenty to beat Theo Douthit (171) and Garbera (185).

Baker took over the points lead from Douthit with the semifinal win, and remained hot against top qualifier Steven Sheffey.  Sheffey, who was leading a JBT SW event for the first time, suffered opens in his first three frames, and that was too much ground to give against the veteran Baker.  BJ's 230-172 win was good for the sixth title of his JBT career, and a $345 scholarship payday.

In handicap division finals action, Greg Geering finally won his first ever match in the finals, firing a 228 that defeated Kyle Ruzylo (208) and Eric Rubin (195).   With the monkey off his back, Geering spared in the tenth frame of match two for a 201 game that edged both Jeff Millmier (197) and Philip Stephens (190).  However, in the semifinal match, a missed 10-pin once again plagued Geering, as Dale Williams' 229 beat out Geering (222) and David Price (201) to advance to the title match.

Top qualifier Kyle Smith had not had good results in his first two JBT SW events, but found Tempe Village perfect for his game, as he easily led the qualifying round.  A close match turned on some late opens by Williams, and Smith was able to take advantage for a 222-196 win, his first JBT SW title, and $300 in scholarships.  Williams' impressive debut performance earned him $150 in scholarships and a trip to the Invitational.
