BIG DADDY'S SUNSET BOWL

champs and finalists

Dmitri Richardson came up with a huge win, while Anthony Vallejos won his first, in exciting JBT Mountain Conference action at Pueblo's Big Daddy's Sunset Bowl.

Bowlers competed in 'pick your poison' matchplay where the higher seeds chose their opponents. In the scratch division, Tyler Close got by Land Matthies in one semifinal, while Richardson stopped Gaius Tipton in the other semi, setting up a title match between two Coloradans starting to distance themselves from the very talented pack in this conference. In the final, Dmitri poured on the strikes, with only a solid-8 stopping a potential 290 game in a big win over Close. The win is the sixth of his JBT career and gives him a 100 point lead in thepoint standings with Lubbock and Albuquerque left to go.

In the handicap division, Keirsten Lee got by Ava Henderson in one semifinal, while Vallejos edged Peyton Lee by the narrowest of margins to move on to the title game. The final was all Vallejos, and he rolled to his first JBT title with the win over Keirsten. Earlier, U17 went to Diego Lujan with a win over Jonathan van der Merwede, while Kallista Fritts swept the Girls weekend with a 246-191 win over Rebecca Wilson.

Big thanks to the team at Sunset for their usual great hosting job. Want in on all this fun for every skill level? Check out our website's schedule and come on down!

TOTAL AWARDED THIS EVENT: $2,914

Date: Sunday April 14, 2024 (This is ONE singles tournament that is one day long, open to anyone age 21 & under as of 8/1/23).

Start Time: Bowling begins at 10 AM. Please be on line to check in no later than 30 minutes prior to start time. We are usually ready to check in 90 minutes-two hours prior to start time.

Re-entries?: There's only one qualifying squad, so there are no re-entries this event..

Reservations: Please email director@bowljbt.com to reserve a spot. You can prepay (not required) at the 'Prepaying' section of this website. Reservations (paid or unpaid) must check in no later than 15 minutes before start time. At that time, all bowlers will be taken on a first come, first serve basis until the field is full.

Format: Qualifying round is 5 games. The top 40% then advance to 'pick your poison' rounds.

Divisions/ Averages: Scratch or handicap. It is the bowlers' choice of division. Also, everyone age 16 or under as of 8/1/23 is automatically entered in the U-17 side event. Also, every female is automatically entered in the Girls Scratch side event. If this is your first JBT event this season, we will be asking for average info. In most cases, your highest average from any current form of organized competition of at least 15 games is what we need. If you bowl in multiple leagues / clubs, bring everything and we'll sort it out for you. If you don't have 15+ games in any organized competition this season, we need your finishing 22-23 average, and any 2023 summer averages. After your first JBT event, your average is re-rated before every JBT event according to JBT rules. Please see JBT Rule 13 for complete details.

Points: This event counts for Mountain and All-Conference points. Points qualify you for the big money season-ending Invitationals and Touring Players Championship, so get all you can. Visit the 'statistics' section of the website to check on your points. At the end of the season, the top 32 in Mountain points, plus anyone who had TWO top-5 finishes in Mountain events this season, advance to their respective Invitationals.

Entry fee: $60. Scholarship brackets are available for $2 each. Raffle tickets for bowling balls from the brands of Brunswick, and our PowerBowl and '28' jackpots, are available on-site.

Sponsor Incentive bonuses: 1) IAM Bowling: Bowlers making the final match of an event (scratch or handicap) wearing an IAM patch (good), any IAM shirt (better), or an IAM JBT shirt (best) earn point bonuses towards a $5,000 IAM incentive jackpot. (The IAM patch is requested to be worn by all bowlers). 2) Virtue Bowling: Bowlers making the final match of an event (scratch or handicap, win or lose), using a Virtue Bowling shirt or patch, and a Virtue drilled ball, earn a $25 Virtue gift card.

Scholarships: 1:6 in each division earn scholarships, scratch and handicap. Minimum prizes are $300, $150, $100, $60. Bowlers must finish in the top 5 twice this season in that conference to qualify for that conference's Invitational, which features $1,000 for first place. Bowlers who finish in the top 20 in a conference's points race, or the top 100 in all-conference points, qualify for the Touring Players Championship, featuring $2,800 for first.

Lane conditions: conditions vary from event to event, and are not posted prior to the event (unless otherwise announced). Some events do not post the pattern until after qualifying, or even at all. Be ready for anything- it makes you a better bowler! Check out previous patterns and corresponding cut scores at the 'lane conditions' section of this website.

Dress code: Anything goes EXCEPT tank tops, gym shorts, clothing promoting alcohol, drugs, or firearms, or excessively ripped or short clothing, subject solely to the director's discretion. However, bowlers wearing slacks or dress shorts/skirts, and a 'name shirt' or PBA-style 'dye-sub' shirt, or college or high school team shirt, earn an extra 10 points on their season-long points total. If you're not sure about dress code, check with us. If you're new to us, the vast majority of the bowlers do dress in the 'bonus' dress code, and those points become very important, so plan accordingly.

RESERVED BOWLERS:

This reservation is an expectation that you will be bowling. PLEASE do not forget to contact us if you need to cancel or adjust your reservation. Repeated 'no-shows' may result in you not being able to reserve a spot. This list may not be updated after the Friday of the event as we travel, etc. However, walk-ins / late entries are still gladly accepted as space permits. There is often plenty of room for walk-ins / late entries, and we'll post here clearly if an event is nearing sellout or sold out.
