OASIS LANES

champs Will Davis & Eric Gauna; Justin Weddige, Yarelis Alvarez, TJ Thalman, Ian Seth Silva

        Will Davis kept rolling along in TX-NM JBT events, while Eric Gauna finally climbed back to victory, in exciting action at Oasis Lanes.

        After qualifying, bowlers competed in our unique nervewracker matchplay, where bowlers tied 1-1 go straight to 9th/10th frame rolloffs.  Davis, last year's Bowler of the Year runner-up, beat Jonah Seawright and Justin Weddige to get to the title game, while on the other side of the bracket, Yarelis Alvarez got past previous day's champ Zach Harvey and Daunte Uribarri to reach the final.

        Alvarez won the first game in the final, but Davis came back to win the second, forcing the nervewracker.  Will was able to win that, capturing the 7th title of his JBT career.

        TJ Thalman beat Joleigh Murphy, Krystal Campos, and Ian Seth Silva to reach the title match in handicap.  He was joined by Guana, who got past Kristy Mace, Jonathan Fonseca, and Faith Pinter.  Both of them had to survive two nervewrackers to get there, so it was appropriate that this match would finish in a nervewracker as well.  In the rolloff, Thalman finished at 49, forcing Eric to strike to win.  Gauna's shot came up high but he got the carry, and won the match for his second career JBT title.

        Weddige, last year's handicap Bowler of the Year, was consoled with a U17 win over Uribarri, while Alvarez also got some redemption in a win over Gerilynn Delegarito for the Priority Girls Scratch win.
