![]() As Saturday at Kent Bowl was our first FOUR Squad Tournament of the year, some people may have mixed up the squad times by either showing up a little late for the 2:00 squad or showing up a little early for the 4:30 squad. Whatever the case, the Tournament came down to the last few frames of the day. With 112 entries, there were 22 bowlers on the Cash List with the 'Cut-Line' dropping steadily throughout the day and winding up at 905. Just the Top 3 managed to break 1000 on a day where humidity was high and (perhaps) had a bearing on slightly lower scores than normal.
The 9-Tap Jackpot had no real threats, which is rare for Kent but Stu Gallagher and Chuck Hufford each managed the front 4 and in doing so, pocketed $100.00 each. As we move on to West Seattle Bowl for another 'Best 3 of 4' Format, the Jackpot rose to just under the $8,000.00 mark.
We want to give well deserved kudos to Vernon 'Skip' Shear, who finished 4th by firing an awesome 979. Skip is a former 'Elite' Division Champ from back in 2013 and was after his first Regular Tour Title. Good bowling, Skip!
Tour 'Life' Member Larry Tibbetts, Sr recently turned 85 years old and
Speaking of 80 somethings, we wanted to give a shout out to 80 year old, Hank Olsen from Alaska, who has joined us as well as our Hawaii Region on a couple of occasions. As a matter of fact, Hank had a 2nd Place finish a few weeks back in Hawaii and finished 15th this week.
While we're on the subject of age, How impressive to see some serious Senior representation on the Cash List?
In their 60's - Brad Dubeck (17thT) & Pete Wood (20th)
In their 70's - Vyron Kuver (13th) & Chuck Hufford (17thT)
In their 80's - Larry Tibbetts, Sr (2nd), Hank Olsen (15th), Stu Gallagher (19th) & Leon Bemis (21st)
Bowling on a Re-entry on the pair next to Larry was last week's Champion, Tony Eigenseher...Tony bowled earlier in the day and didn't bowl well at all! He didn't plan on reentering but saw that it was raining
