WOW, what an incredible start to the 2nd Half of the season.  We had a huge turnout of 180 bowlers show up this weekend at Secoma Lanes, creating a HUGE Cash List 36 Members.  So far, this was largest one-day Singles turnout this year, nice job everyone!  Before I start, with Rob, Margie and Shellie on IR with Covid, I'd like to thank Jason, Donnie and Joyce for SAVING THE DAY by filling in and helping to make Saturday such a smooth running Tournament.  The scoring pace was very close to being perfectly 'on-target', with only 4 series over the 1000 mark and a low-to-cash of just 884. 

 

With the 9-Tap Jackpot at a nice $4,604.00 and the Middle-7 Taps in-play, many bowlers took a run at claiming that $500.00 prize.  Brian Peters finished with 6 in-a-row but fell short because he ran out of frames.  William Kenny and James Black, both had strings of SIX Taps going, but James Black's luck ran out by throwing a perfect strike.  William's attempt at #7 was more dramatic and quite heartbreaking, as his shot went Brooklyn leaving the 3 pin standing, but as the sweep came down, a pin rolled forward knocking $500.00 right out of his grasp as the 3-pin fell. 

 

At the end of day, Eddie Burdsall did manage to finish a game with SEVEN straight Taps, taking a $500.00 payday from the Jackpot.  Sadly, we didn't get Eddie's shot on video.

Taking 3rd Place at Secoma was Adam Steen, who nearly accomplished every P.B. you could think of.  The newcomer who joined the Tour in March, fired his best series, game and his highest finish, all in one entry.  Firing a great 1044 series was enough to earn him his largest check at $499.00.  Great shooting Adam, could be the start of great times.
