SO CAL DOUBLES

champs Ryan Lee and Anthony Schanen & James McGough & William Robbins

        Two strong teams put on great stepladder performances to win the So Cal Doubles Classic, hosted by Bowlium Lanes in Montclair.

        The father-son team of Brian and Kyle Reed opened the scratch finals with a 228-190 win over Jacob Camacho and Darron Peters.  The Reeds turned it up in round two with a big 268-193 win over Kevin and Robert Banaag.   Solomon Salama and Harley Sweigart, the left duo ranked 1-2 in points and the team to beat on paper, then fell victim to too many 9-counts and more great shots from the Reeds, as Kyle and Brian won 237-216 to reach the title game.

        Top seeds Ryan Lee and Anthony Schanen had already had a great day, dominating the tournament from the beginning and highlighted by a 300 game from Schanen, good for the $300 MSC perfect game jackpot!  They had a narrow lead through most of the title match as well, until a missed 10-pin by Lee in the tenth gave the Reeds a chance to come out of nowhere and win, but it required three strikes in the tenth from Brian on a lane he looked lost on just to tie.  Reed threw two brilliant shots, but couldn't get the third hit in the tenth, and Ryan and Anthony escaped with a 208-206 win and the titles.

        The Winnetka-based team of Daniel Giegoldt and Ardani Rodas began round one of the handicap finals with a narrow 203-201 win over Amanda and Ed Hanson.  Ardani and Giegodlt then got past Erik Hagen and Caleb Rothstein 201-146, followed by a 173-129 victory over newcomers Kyle and Anthony Nino, to reach the title game.

        William Robbins has been on a tear through all JBT conferences (look out PNW), and he made a shrewd choice of partner in James McGough, a veteran Californian, who bowls very similar to William so they could really get a good read off each other.  Throwing hard and staying out of trouble, they led from the start, and when the strikes started coming they became unstoppable, beating Daniel and Ardani 257-196 for the titles.

        Big thanks to the team at Bowlium for their usual terrific hosting job.  Want in on all this excitement?  Just check out our next JBT event and come on down!
