        Wesley Low and Brooke Collins rang out 2014 in style, capturing titles at the JBT 'Super Regional' held at Texas Station to wrap up Main Event week.

        Las Vegan Dallas Leong began the scratch division stepladder finals with a 195-185 win over Florida's Michael Coffey.  Tyler Boe, a Pac NW star from Washington, then stopped Leong 253-194.  Sam Cantrell then represented Northern California with a 200-163 win to move on to the title match.

        Top seed Wesley Low torched the lanes to an even +400 after eight games, and then earned a $400 prize by defeating Cantrell 246-191 to win the 19th title of his exceptional JBT career.

        Austin Veteto survived a high scoring round one of the handicap stepladder finals with a 256-245 win over Dee Handley.  Kelley Johnson then made his first finals a success with a 264-202 win over Veteto.  Fellow Utah bowler Tyler Thomas then beat Johnson 218-203 to reach the title game.

        Brooke Collins had a breakthrough event, as the Washington bowler grabbed the lead in the semifinals, then stayed ahead most of the title match in a 214-176 final score, good for the first championship of her JBT career.
