AZ Doubles Classic at AMF SHEA VILLAGE
champions BJ Baker & Robbie Patterson; Austen Christensen &
Mary Brandt
A sellout field of 100 teams shared in over $4,500 in scholarships and cash
at the 10th Annual JBT SW Arizona Doubles Classic, presented by DryLanes.com.
In the scratch division, the fourth-seeded team of 3-time JBT champ Rachelle
Davis and adult amateur star Tyson Branagan, owner of 4 JBT titles, defeated
Grant and John Sudbeck, owners of 7 JBT titles combined, by a 180-152 score in
round one of the Baker-format stepladder finals.
Round two was probably the best match in JBT Doubles history. Brian
Weyrauch and Mike Seitz engaged in a close, mid-scoring battle with Tyson and
Rachelle. Branagan finished spare strike to force Seitz to roll all three
strikes in the tenth to win. After getting the first two hits, Seitz' last
ball came up high and managed to get nine, forcing a tie at 200. In the
first one-shot rolloff that ensued, both Tyson and Seitz threw perfect strikes
to fore a second rolloff. They repeated the flush strikes in the second...
and the third... AND THE FOURTH rolloff. Finally, in the fifth
rolloff, Tyson went high for an eight count, while Seitz' equally high ball
busted up a split for a nine-count and an exhausting win.
In round three, BJ Baker and Robbie Patterson took advantage of an obviously
mentally spent team of Seitz and Weyrauch, with Baker's spare in the tenth
ensuring what ended up to be a 192-180 victory, advancing them to the title
match against top seedes Theo Douthit and Rhino Page.
The final was truly an all star affair. BJ and Theo are the two premier
lefthanders currently in JBT with 19 titles between them. Rhino is a
three-time Team USA member and collegiate national champion (with 2 JBT SW
titles), while Robbie is a 6-time JBT SW champ from our early seasons and
current member of Brunswick's amateur staff. The match was a well-bowled
affair on some demanding conditions, but in the end Baker and Patterson had just
enough to squeeze out a 204-182 victory. It was Baker's 14th JBT SW win,
good for sole possession of fourth place on our all-time titles list.
In contrast, all members of the handicap division's finalist teams were still
looking for their first JBT titles. In round one, Austen Christensen and
Mary Brandt opened up with a 175-161 victory over Daniel Cotten and Anthony
Pizzi, points leader Steven's big brother.
Round two was all Austen and Mary again, this time defeating first time
finalists Mike Armstrong and Jessica Reed 195-146. Christensen and Brandt
then advanced to the title match with a 165-145 win over Ben Stalker and Nick
Steckler. Steckler also had the distinction of rolling the event's only
300 game, with a perfect effort in game 6.
Top qualifiers Brandon Longo and Matthew Erb had led the tournament by a
comfortable margin, but the pair of thumbless-style bowlers ran into trouble
with the drying out conditions, and the tiring but confident pair of Austen and
Mary. In the end, they completed their conquering of the stepladder with a
174-155 win over Matt and Brandon, good for their first JBT SW wins, and a $325
scholarship for Austen.
Everyone who finished in the top 5 qualifies for the 2006 JBT SW Arizona Invitational Tournament, the regular season's year end event, featuring a
guaranteed minimum $1,000 first place scholarship in each division. Top
season-long point scorers also qualify for the 2006 JBT SW Touring Players'
Championship, featuring a guaranteed minimum $2,000 first place scholarship per
division!
Thanks to everyone at Shea Village for hosting this great event, and to Dry
Lanes.com for being the title sponsor of the tournament. Please continue to
help spread the word about the terrific benefits
of bowling JBT SW events!
