Congratulations to Jim Wolcott of Nashville, TN as he became our newest champion!
This was our first stop that has been full as we had 48 bowlers and want to thank Chris Campagna and his crew for doing a great job.
The field was very divided with low and high scores. We had several honor scores as 300 were shot by Jim Wolcott and Clint Owens (Rogers, AR).
Clint was our high qualifier with games of 287-255-248-225-265 for plus 280. To make the finals it took plus 59 as Billy West of Russellville AR shot games of 190-217-254-195-203.
We had 27 bowlers at even or better. This stop had nine new bowlers and we had 5 states represented. Clint lead from wire to wire during qualifying and he beat Billy in the first round of the bracket finals 269-178. The next match was the only bad game of the tournament for Clint as he lost to Andy Black (Hot Springs AR) 259-185. This but Clint in the loser bracket were he ran off games of 300-279-235-216. The 216 also knocked him out of the tournament as he faced Tony Campagna (Nashville-TN), as he bowled a 235 to win the match. tony had lost match one vs Andy 279-257, then he went on a roll in the loser bracket winning 5 matches before losing to his buddy from Nashville, Jim Wolcott 256-199. Tony had shot games of 259-279-247-257-235 prior to his match with Jim. The two had rode together and I feel certain they had plenty to talk about on the way home.
Jim our number 7 seed faced Robert Felice (Texarkana TX) our number 10 seed and they both bowled 228 and in the roll-off Jim struck and Robert knocked down nine. Jim then beat three time champion Sean Quinn (Topgun MS) 297-236. Jim then slipped by Steve Swain (Kennett MO) our number 6 seed 202-198. This set up the finals of the winners bracket as Andy won a very close match 203-202. Jim then beat Tony in the finals of the loser's bracket 256-199, setting up a re-match with Andy. Andy posted a 237 and with a strike/spare in the tenth we would have had a tie but Jim was flush on both # 10 and 11 and won the match 246-237. The if game was not a close as Andy struggled to carry and Jim won the match 225-205 and the ASBT trophy and $1,000.00. This was Jim's second time on the ASBT as he finished in the top 8 in Memphis.
Here are the payouts and scores and seed/top 16 points for each of the 12 that cashed.

We continue to add dollars to the top 16 tournament and with 9 new bowlers (90.00) and running 71 brackets (71 x 3.00 = 213.00) and our 50/50 added 66.00 for a total of 369.00 putting us over $2,000.00 for the tournament to be held at AllFam Bowling Center in Cabot, AR on the 24th of Aug.
Our high qualifier Clint Owens received 85.00 and our high non cash senior was Woody Jackson of Fort Smith, AR and he received 50.00 for being plus 8.

CONGRATULATIONS TO CHAMPION REGGIE RILEY FROM MONTICELLO, AR

The ASBT has crowned another new champion, Reggie Riley from Monticello, AR. This makes two stops in a row that a first timer has won the tournament. With 33 bowlers at this stop Reggie went undefeated in the bracket finals and defeated Mark Stanbaugh (Texarkana, Tx) in the finals 235-226, as Mark opened twice in the first 5 frames.
We want to say thanks to Vickie Thompson and her crew for doing a great job on Sunday as they stepped in an took an open date for us.
Our top qualifier was Ron Booy(Mt Home, AR) at plus 226 as things changed the last game with some big scores being shot. Ron reeled off games of 211/279/264/225/247. To make the finals (top 16) it took plus 93 as Dave Newcomer (Pearcy, AR) went around several bowlers with a 226 final game.
Reggie qualified 8th with games of241/215/225/247/235 for plus 163. Reggie faced Horace Childress (Little Rock, AR) and won 254-181 up next was number one seed Ron Booy and not close again as Reggie won 248-200, then came the close matches as Mark Stanbaugh(13th seed) lost 202-198. This set up the final match in the winners bracket as our number 7 seed George Schaefer (Bryant, AR) needed the first strike in the tenth to lock up the win, instead the shot was light leaving the 2-8. After making the spare George now needed to strike to tie and he did. In the tiebreaker (one ball roll-off) George and Reggie both struck on the first ball, then George left the 3-6-10 and Reggie struck forcing George to the loser side of the bracket. George had been used to the needing a strike to advance as in match one he won 226-225 and match 2 he won 227-226, as both matches came down to the last ball in the tenth and George striking both times to win the matches. George then lost to Mark Stanbaugh in the finals of the loser bracket 212-169. Mark had the only honor score of the tournament vs Cory Smith (NLR, AR) as Mark won the match 299-235, this gave Cory 4th place as he was our number 11 seed. Cory was beaten by George in the semi's of the winners bracket 255-233. Reggie and Mark in the finals was close in the end as Mark started a string of strikes in the 6th but it was just a case of two little two late as Reggie matched him from the 8th frame on.

Congratulations to Sean Quinn ASBT champion for the fourth time.

Hey to all,and here are the results of the stop at Bowling World.
First of all I want to thank Frank Jamison and his staff for not only going out and recruiting bowlers, but for having things ready for the ASBT. Thanks so much Frank.
Congratulations to Sean Quinn (Topgun, MS) for being our first back to back champion.
Sean was our number 16 seed and went unbeaten in the winners bracket. The scores were very high as it took plus 81 to make the cut. Our leading qualifier was Dirk Gibson (Little Rock) as he reeled off the highest 5 game block we have had on the ASBT, with games of
248-300-248-279-265 for plus 340. Steve Stanton (Fort Smith) was second with plus 223.
Once again we had the a record field of 36 and 27 of them were plus or better.
We had 2 honor scores shot as Dirk had the 300 game, and Jeff Atkins (Hot Springs Village) had a 299 game on game # 4 of qualifying.
The bracket was not kind to Dirk as Sean won that match 259-217, sending Dirk to the loser bracket to face Andy Mortensen (Bixby OK) seed # 9 and Andy won 232-206. This left Dirk with the $85.00 for being high qualifier. Dirk had a very good day in the brackets and lets just say he left with a smile on his face.
Sean was slow out of the gate as he shot games of 192-198-238-222-231 to edge Anthony Doncheff (Ash Flat) by one pin. In the bracket Sean was dialed in for sure as he beat in order Tim Dooley (Fort Smith) seed # 8, 236-216. Up next was Mike Mowrey (NLR) seed # 12 and the score was 244-178, then came Ron Booy (Mt. Home) seed # 11 as this was the finals of the winners bracket and Ron was no match for Sean as he won 254-187. Ron then beat Mike in the finals of the loser bracket 248-226, as Mike finished in 3rd place with Ron in 2nd. Mike had beaten Steve Stanton seed #2 in the semi's of the loser bracket 227-159, as this was Steve's first ASBT stop and he finished in 4th place. Ron had beaten Robert Felice (Texarkana, TX) seed # 6 231-184, then he beat Jeff Atkins (Hot Springs Village) seed #3, 210-196, up next was Steve Stanton (Fort Smith, AR) seed # 2, 225-209. Here is the top eight that cashed and their seed and money won plus points for the top 16, as we put $349.00 into the top 16 from this stop.

Results from the Jonesboro stop, Oct 7th

Congratulations to Sean Quinn on winning his third ASBT title!

Hey to all,and thanks to the 35 bowlers that made the Jonesboro stop the largest to date ASBT tournament we have had. The scores were good and bad on the new lanes at Jonesboro. The new format was great as this format will be used the rest of the year. A first time ASBT member, Jeff Williams kicked the scoring off with an 807 series as he bowled 288/240/279. Jeff from Cape Girardeau, MO was second in qualifying as Nick Branum from Kennett, MO led the field with plus 226 for the 5 games as he shot 259/223/249/247/248.

This stop paid out over 5,000.00 in money, with all the side action and prize fund along with the 100.00 added money from Liberty Bank of Jonesboro. This stop added 249.00 to the Top 16 at the end of the year as we had 38 brackets of which 3.00 from each bracket goes into the top 16, plus we had 9 new bowlers of which 10.00 form the 25.00 fee goes into the Top 16. This gives us $379.00 after just 2 stops and with more bowlers this amount will just go up.
The final match between Sean and Alan was just a battle of 7-10 splits as Sean had 3 in a row. Sean made a ball change and he was able to strike out in the 8th/9th/10th to force Alan to do the same in the 9th and 10th. Sean had posted his 203 and Alan could have struck out in the 10th for 204, but as Sean found out early in the match the 7-10 was in play and Alan left the split on the first ball in the 10th leaving him with 172 and 2nd place.
This was Sean's third time to win on the ASBT as he won one the first year along with the Top 12 title the first year.
Our next stop will be in Fort Smith at Bowling World on Nov. 4th, and members will have until
Oct 31st to decide if they plan to bowl that stop.
Thanks again to all that bowled and hope to have 40 or more in Fort Smith at the next stop.
