WHITEWOOD LANES

champs Zach Wojciechowski & Taylan McCleery; Chritsian Apolonio, David Jepsen, Toby Cdebaca, Kallista Fritss, Alyssa McCleery

        Zach Wojciechowski and Taylan McCleery earned JBT titles at Lubbock's Whitewood Lanes in exciting JBT Texas-New Mexico Conference action.

     After qualifying, bowlers competed in 'pick your poison', where higher seeded bowlers chose who they wanted to face in matchplay.  In the scratch division semifinals, Wojciechowski got by Harley Sweigart 204-190, while Christian Apolonio strung the strikes in a 258-224 win over Kellen Lavery to set up the finale.

    'Wojo' stayed in control the entire title game, and the 215-191 final was good for the solid veteran's ninth career JBT title.

    The handicap division was carved down to four un-poisoned bowlers, and in those matches, Toby Cdebaca got past Kaitlun Meiers 222-193, and Taylan McCleery ousted Eric Gauna 213-196.  Both Toby and Taylan were trying for their first JBT titles, but it's been a much longer hunt for Toby, a long-time vet, than Taylan, bowling his second ever event.  The match proved to be a classic, as Cdebaca's short fill ball allowed McCeery to get spare-9 for the win.  After calmly converting the 4-7, twelve year-old Taylan stepped up and got exactly the 9 he needed for a 193-192 win and his jubilant family celebrated his first JBT win. 

        David Jespen swept the U17 subdivision on the weekend with a 191-153 win over Donius Jeffries.  The Priority Girls Scratch event was another thriller, providing the third one-pin title match of the weekend, as Kallista Fritts edged Kara Thompson 171-170 for the win in that event.

        Big thanks to Bill and Monica Wood and the team at Whitewood for hosting our Tour.  Want in on all this fun for all ages?  Just check out our schedule and come on down to the next JBT event!
