Wildfire Casino and Lanes hosted the 9-Tap Tour this week.  Joe Noya stepped up win the Crazy 8s contest, winning his way in to the main event while Derrick Chan earned a partial entry of $45.00 for second place.  Darla Cox came through with 17 total taps for her 4 games, edging out Albin Sutrick by just 1 tap to win the Storm Bowling Ball.  The 9-Tap Jackpot paid out$100.00 to Joe Noya for his 4 Taps.  Overall there were 30 entries and 6 Members on the "Cash List" sharing in the $1,763.00 paid out!  Everybody also enjoyed pizza for lunch! 

Now for the run down.....  Kara Noya found herself atop the Leaderboard with a 673 series after the 12 Noon squad, however, it was not strong enough to last past the second squad.  Bill Gannon put up a nice 717 set with Greg Mamac just one pin behind with his716 mark.  Ken James took over third place with his 698 set.  With just the last squad to go, Greg decided to go after first place while Bill went home content with his score.  It was the right decision for Greg as he started off his set with an awesome 300 game finishing with 768 to take the lead.  Greg's score did not go unchallenged as Saksit Gankhang came up just a mark short with his 761 score to take second place and a check for $270.00!  Bill Gannon would get pushed into third place, taking home $185.00.  Greg picked up his 4th Tour Title, a Gold Championship shirt, and $575.00 to add to his bank account.  Congratulations to all our finalists this week and to Greg for winning his fourth Championship. 

Greg Mamac has been bowling for 30 years and was our first Bowler of the Year in 2016.  He told me he was feeling lucky so hewent and re-entered the last squad.  Using his Mako Track ball drilled up by JB Bowling Supply, he plans to use his winnings to bowl in more 9-Tap Tour events.  Greg was cheered on by his friend Jerry and thanks his Mom and Dad for their support. Way to go Greg!
