The 9 Tap family would like to give a huge shout out to Leon Bemis and celebrate his 91st birthday on the 2nd. 

Happy Birthday Leon!!! 

The tour returns to one of the more popular houses on our schedule, Secoma Lanes.  We seem to experience huge crowds here, and this weekend was no exception, as there were 187 bowlers showing up. The cash list grew to a nice 37 places with a low to cash of 687.  The scoring pace was right on target, with only one 800 series shot this weekend.  Chuck Hufford came out in the first squad to lead the pack with a nice 730 series, followed by Samson Ibale firing a nice 794 to take over the top spot.  Could this score hold on for Samson to win his 4th title this year? Just a little triva note here as the Tour hit a nice milestone this weekend as we surpass the $400,000.00 mark in total payouts.  This is approaching the tour record with 2 more tournaments remaining. Great job to all our members!!! 

The 9 Tap Jackpot seems to be in hiding this weekend as only one bowler hit the front 4 taps.  Terry Vallala finished on top with the front 4 taps taking home $150.00.  The 9 Tap Jackpot has now grown to $9,033.00 for the next tournament at Kenmore Lanes.    

Our champion this week is now an 8 time winner, who has not won since 2017, Bob Rouse.  Bob asked if he could bowl on the lanes that had his pennant hanging up, he said it was for luck.  Well that was a great prediction, as Bob shot the only 800 series this weekend.   Lacing up his Strike Force shoes, Bob shot a nice 810 series using his Black Widow Darknight drilled by Robert Kelly at Secoma Lanes.  Bob would like thank Tong Nguyen and Jon Schneider for cheering him on.  Bob plans on using $1,637.00 winnings on a nice vacation and more 9 Tap Tournaments.

Just falling a little short for his 32nd  tournament win, Samson Ibale takes second place.  Samson shot a nice 794 series in the second squad and looked tough to beat.  Samson takes home another check for $980.00. 

Just missing out on his 5th title, Paul Mann takes 3rd place, his highest finish this year.  Firing a 728 in the first squad, Paul came back in the 3rd squad and shot a nice 778 series.  Paul takes home a check of $489.00.
