LUCKY 66 LANES

champs William Haverland & Brandon Culp

William Haverland and Brandon Culp tasted victory in exciting JBT SW action at Albuquerque's Lucky 66 Bowl.

The stepladder finals were dominated by BJ Baker until the title match.  He won round with a 236-217 victory over Stephen Gaucin.  Baker than followed with a 255-194 win over Geoffrey Young, and got by Jeremy Medina 225-214 to reach the title match.

Haverland had yet another dominant performance in his cameo appearances with us, and wanted to avenge some recent mediocre title match performances.  He did that and then some, blasting ten strikes in s 278-225 romp over Baker, good for his third career JBT tile.

The handicap division finals opened with Jordan Oppenheim rolling a big 269, and he needed every bit of it to get past Kyle Pearce (259) and Michael Hinojosa (198).  Oppenheim then rolled on in round two with a 226 to beat Zachary Barnard (211) and Paul Carper (199).  Another close match again went in Jordan's favor in the semifinal, with his 235 just getting by DeeDee Harvey (233) and Bethany Baker (176).

Top seed Brandon Culp put a quick stop to Oppenheim's run with a fast start that he didn't look back from.  The 253-183 final score was plenty good for Culp to capture a long-awaited first career JBT title.
