PAC NW DOUBLES

champs Abbie Kay & Kevin Hong, and Paul and Charles Lemay

        After a long day of great competition, Abbie Kay and Kevin Hong claimed scratch, while Paul and Charles Lemay won handicap, at the JBT Pac NW Doubles Classic, hosted by Hiline Lanes in Burien.

        All-time JBT titles leader Cortez Schenck made a trip to the PNW a success with a 227-186 win with his partner Mike Calderon over Tanner Spacey and Bradley Baltazar to begin the scratch finals.  In a thriller of a semifinal, Robert Kelley and Andrew Martin snuck by Schenck and Calderon 209-207 to reach the title game.

           Hong, a veteran of team and doubles events, and the rapidly improving Abbie Kay grabbed the top seed, and were able to defeat Kelley and Martin for the win, the first of Abbie's JBT career.

            The father-son duo of Charles and Paul Lemay began the handicap finals with a 177-160 win over Trevor Wodesky and JT Taylor.   Trevor's brother Taylor and Brandon Jensen tried to avenge the family in the semifinals, but the Lemays were good again, winning 182-153 to reach the title game.

            Top seeds Malcolm Jacobson and Vianne Daniels enjoyed the best events of their JBT careers.  However, the Lemays saved their best for last, defeating Malcolm and Vianne 260-226, earning the first titles of their JBT careers.

            Huge thanks to the incredible Pat Johns and their team for hosting a jam-packed day, which resulted on over $3,500 in scholarships awarded.  Want in on all the fun?  Just come on out to the next JBT event!
