DESERT SKY

champs Harley Sweigart & Hayden Hull with Austin Muldoon & Justin Worthington; U17 winner Gavin Holter; Girls winner Stefanny Toala with Rashaad Jordan

        Harley Sweigart continued his dominant season, while Hayden Hull caught the roll of his life at just the right time, in exciting JBT action at Desert Sky Lanes.

      Cristian Roque, making his first finals in a while, began the scratch division stepladder with a 206-191 win over Rashaad Jordan.  Sweigart then stopped Roque 223-171, and followed with a 237-181 victory over Keith Fung.  Top seed Austin Muldoon, fresh off his Best In The West win, found himself at the number one spot again.  This time though, Harley had a better look and strung the strikes in a 258-190 win over Austin for the 27th title of his outstanding JBT career.

       Newcomer Cesar Padilla doubled in the tenth frame to do something nobody could do last week in Vegas- beat William Robbins- in a 233-230 victory.  New Mexico's Alex Thompson then stopped Padilla 224-198.  Justin Worthington then turned the tables on Thompson with a 218-166 win to move on to the title match.

        Hayden Hull went from out of the finals to the top seed with a huge last game of round two.  The first time in a title game can be intimidating, but Hayden showed no signs of that.  Worthington bowled an excellent 231, but Hull came up 275 scratch game for a huge 313 total with pins, plenty for his first career JBT title. 

        Gavin Holter won his first U17 subdivision with a 193-158 win over Roque, and Stefanny Toala kept on rolling in the Priority Girls Scratch event with a 202-172 win over Brooke Collins.
