        A group of ladies were looking to duplicate JBT history, but it was an Oregon bunch getting vengeance instead, in terrific action at the JBT Baker Team Challenge, hosted by Hiline Lanes in Burien.

        The '300 wannabes' (Madison Flatin, Kierra and Kailee Wilcox, Anna Gatin, and Rose Ugbinada) were looking to match the strategy of five So Cal girls last year with all-under-170 averages to take the title.  They looked well on their way, earning the top seed by a decent margin, and only dropping one game in matchplay (to the mostly-Lennox 'Funky Monkeys') to reach the title match.  Their opponents would be #2 seed "Get Pranked" (Trevor and Eric Wodesky, JT Taylor, Silas LeBlanc, Chris Mongelli), who also only dropped one game to reach the final.

        It looked like it would take a big score from the higher average team to beat the girls, but the gentlemen were more than up to the task, blasting two big numbers to sweep the 2-of-3 match and earn the title.  The youth bowlers split the $600 top prize/  For Silas it was his second JBT win, while JT and Eric claimed their first titles.

        Huge thanks to all the adults who competed in one of our favorite events of the year, as well as Pat Johns and the team at Hiline for an outstanding job hosting a jam packed weekend.  The $1,500 awarded on the day pushed the weekend total to almost $5,000 in scholarships earned by all ages and all averages!  Want a piece of the fun?  Just check out our schedule and come on down!
