026 Doubles Mojave

MOJAVE DOUBLES

champs & finalists

Gavin Fernandez and Andrew Guba defended their titles, while the handicap division added an international flair to the winner’s circle, in exciting action at the Mojave Doubles Classic, hosted by Las Vegas’ Sam’s Town Bowling Center.

Xavier Lapito and Chris Williams began the scratch division Baker-format stepladder finals with an exciting win over Katelyn and Josh Abigania. Gavin and Andrew then took over, beating Xavier and Chris 235-211 to advance to the final. Top seeds Brandon Rother ad Gage Baker awaited. The 1-2 bowlers in all-conference points dominated the day, but it’s Fernandez and Guba that dominate this event, and their big 269-225 win made it back to back in this event, as well as the 8^th and 12^th titles of Gavin and Andrew’s respective JBT careers.

Anastasia Babb-Bustamante and Tiana Thoman-Smith began the handicap division stepladder finals with a 182-159 win over Branston Anguay and Kaleb Howard. Vegas’ own Gia Ullio then teamed up with Taiga Minagawa, visiting from Japan in advance of Main Event, to beat Ana and Tiana 216-149 and advance to the title game.

Brody Murray tried to complete his dream weekend by teaming up with Cayson Lapito, having won singles the day before. They were spectacular in gaining the top seed, but could not find the same look in the title match. Taiga and Gia were able to cruise in the back half of the game, winning the game for their first career JBT titles each.

Big thanks as always to Tom and the Sam’s Town team for a perfect hosting job. Want in on all the fun and excitement for all ages and skill levels? Just check out our terrific upcoming schedule and email us your reservations today!

TOTAL AWARDED THIS EVENT: $3,070

Date: Sunday December 21, 2025 (This is ONE doubles tournament that is one day long. Teams may be youth-youth OR youth-adult. 'Adult' is anyone 22 or over as of 8/1/25).

Start Time: Bowling begins at 9:30 AM.

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: Partner may be another junior OR an adult ('adult' means anyone 22 or over as of 8/1/25). Qualifying round is 4 team games. The top 40%, to a maximum of 48 total teams, then bowl a 2 game semifinals. The top 4 then do a Baker-format stepladder finals.

Divisions/ Averages: Scratch or handicap. It is the teams' choice of division, except that teams over 400 must bowl scratch. 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 24-25 average, and any 2025 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 Mojave and All-Conference points. You earn points in the division in which your team competes. 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. As the end of the season, the top 40 in Mojave points, plus anyone who had TWO top-5 finishes in Mojave events this season, advance to their respective Invitationals.

Entry fee: $80 per team. Youth scholarship brackets are available for $2 each. Separate adult singles cash brackets are $5 each. Raffle tickets for Brands of Brunswick bowling balls, and our PowerBowl and 'perfect 30' 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 $400, $200, $150, $100. Bowlers must finish in the top 5 twice this season 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 120 in all-conference points, qualify for the Touring Players Championship, featuring $3,000 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. 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. For doubles, matching 'theme' outfits that would otherwise not fit the dress code will count, pending directors' final decision. 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.

If you are signing up without a partner that's fine- until the event nears sellout. Please notify us once you know your partner(s). If you remain with an incomplete team when the event nears sellout, we will have to contact you to check in on your plans. Thanks.
