Joe Bourhill bowls 299 in Wednesday Summer Mixed

He has been spending his first season at Westgate, and I’m mentioning him for a score for the first time: Joe Bourhill shot 299 last night in the Wednesday summer league. Good job! 🙂

“Mr. 900” shoots 300 in Monday Summer Doubles

He hasn’t quite tripled the total of 300 games from Feb. 19, 2015, but “Mr. 900” Hakim Emmanuel did get close to it with #8 tonight in the summer doubles league. Because it was available, Shawn Hagan’s video of the last shot is below (Shawn is Hakim’s partner in this league):

Nice going Hakim! 🙂

Sean Richard slams 801 in Somerset

“$eany Ka$h” struck again tonight in the summer doubles league in Somerset, going 278-256-267 for an 801, his second 800 set in as many weeks in that league. Nice going! 🙂

Zach Thompson bowls 299 in Monday Summer Doubles

Zach Thompson posted on his Facebook last night that he had a 299 game in the third game, and 814 for three games, but that was starting with Game 2 of four. Nice bowling, still! 🙂

Sean Richard shoots 299/812 in Somerset

These should be Sean Richard’s first scores after his official Brockton Bowling Association Hall of Fame induction: He had 277-238-299 tonight in Steph’s Summer Doubles league in Somerset for an 812 set. Nice going! 🙂

Stan Lewis bowls first 800 in Monday Summer Doubles

Congrats to Stan Lewis, who, last night, went 260-269-277 in the first three of his four games for an 806 set, which was his first 800. 🙂

Aaron Major posts 298 in Adult/Junior

Last Thursday in the Adult/Junior league, a more familiar name made some noise, as Aaron Major, home from his freshman year at Wichita St., posted a 298 game. WTG! 🙂

Chuck Kalasinsky bowls 300 in Monday Summer Doubles

I’m not sure if this is his first honor score, but I believe I’m mentioning him here for the first time: Chuck Kalasinsky had a 300 game last week in the Monday doubles league. Nice bowling! 🙂

Ed Roberts & John Gant take SEMBA Century Doubles title in Cranston

As noted in the above Facebook post, Brockton Bowling Association Hall of Famer Ed Roberts teamed with past PBA Tour champion John Gant to win SEMBA’s first of two Century Doubles (sum of ages must be at least 100) titles for the year last Sunday at AMF Cranston Lanes, defeating Jesse Cote & George Tignor, 821-761 (two games) in the final round. Gant also threw SEMBA’s second 300 game in its history in the semifinal round. Kegel Abbey Road was the lane condition.

Michael “Sensae” Reed posts 299 game in Monday Summer Doubles

Found out today that Michael Reed, BKA “Sensae”, had a 299 game Monday night in the summer doubles league. WTG! 🙂

Zach Thompson bowls 300, Chuck Paige 298 in NAT doubles

As usual with the Northeast Amateur Tournament, I’ll post the scores from the tournament first; these were both in the same group of the second squad, Zach Thompson first in the second game with a 300, then Chuck Paige’s 298 game following that.

Good bowling guys! 🙂

Jake Tobin fires 300 game in Adult/Junior

Jake Tobin bowled his first 800 series this past winter season in the Brunswick Mixed league, and can now add a 300 game to that, bowled tonight in the Adult/Junior league. Ken Gerraughty got the video, which he let me download and share here:

Congrats Jake…I know you’ve been wanting one of those! 🙂

Brian Egan throws 300 in Monday Summer Doubles

I reserve the right to post other scores from this week later, but I do have at least one tonight: Brian Egan’s 300. Nice bowling! 🙂

Buddy Wilt bowls first 300 in Hanover history

I didn’t find out about it until today at the Brockton Bowling Association’s annual meeting, but congratulations to my fellow board member Buddy Wilt, who, last Nov. 28, bowled the first 300 game in the history of Boston Bowl Hanover in the Monday Mixers league. WTG! 🙂

Sean Richard throws 300 game at Wonder Bowl

With his Brockton Bowling Association Hall of Fame induction only days away (finally), “$eany Ka$h” added to his resume last night with a 300 game in the Columbia 300 Summer Classic league at Wonder Bowl in New Bedford, in which he was subbing. This was #86 for him, so the count-up to #100 is close to being, if not actually, on.

Nice bowling! 🙂

Kris Voss rolls 278 game in summer His & Hers

And a woman’s score to report from last week: Kris Voss had a 278 game last Tuesday in the His & Hers summer league. Nice going! 🙂

Greg Andrews bowls 300/856, Wayne Andrews 300 with 599 team game in Monday Summer Doubles

On the first week of the Monday Summer Doubles league, Greg Andrews shot 299, 257, 300 for an 856 in the first three of four games, but I need to call special attention to the first game, as Greg’s brother Wayne had his first 300 game in that game, so the team just missed a 600 doubles game with the 599 game.

Nice bowling guys! 🙂

Shawn Hagan posts 815 set in Coke league

The highest-scoring Coke league in memory was not going to end without a score in the last week, it seemed, and it was Shawn Hagan who provided it, going 279-268-268 for a personal-best 815 set. Way to end on a high note! 🙂

I will have one more post to make about the season in this league, but it’ll have to wait until next week, when I’ll have the content I want.

Tom Hedding fires 300 in Patriots, sets new Brockton Bowling Association record average

“TomTom” Hedding threw a 300 second game in the Patriots league tonight, but that may not be the most important thing that happened. He bookended the night with a 226 and a 193 for a 719 series, and with that, ended the season with a 240.60 average for 102 games in the league. It is, in fact, a new Brockton Bowling Association record, as well as the first 240 average in the association, as the old record was held by Nate Abdow, who posted a 238.93 average in the 2009-10 Silver City league at AMF Taunton Lanes (now defunct).

Congratulations! 🙂

Sean Richard fires 300 in Westgate Mixed

It’s been a while between scores for “$eany Ka$h”, but he ended his honor score drought last night with a 300 in the Westgate Mixed league. I don’t remember if his team won the first half of that league, but it was their position night for the second half last night.

WTG $eany! 🙂

Tasheka Douglas shoots 279 in Rhythm & Bowling

And a woman’s score to report: Tasheka Douglas put up a 279 game last Sunday (Apr. 30) in the Rhythm & Bowling league. Good job! 🙂

Jon Hester fires 824, Nathan Crouse 300 in Coke league

Congratulations to Jon Hester, who last night posted a 279-277-268 for an 824 in the Coke league, which teammate Zach Thompson said on Facebook came 21 years after Jon Hester’s last 800 series.

Not to be outdone, Nathan Crouse posted another 300 game last night as well. WTG! 🙂

Rob Young, Mike Mayo shoot 290s in Patriots league

In a case of a couple more scores reaching me after the standings update, both Rob Young and Mike Mayo had a 290 game last Thursday in the Patriots league. Good going! 🙂

Tom Hedding slams 822 in Patriots league

“TomTom” Hedding tonight in the Patriots league had games of 278, 279, and 265 for an 822 set, and it puts him on the verge of making Brockton Bowling Association history, as it makes his average 240.63 for 99 games, which, if he maintains it next week, will be the first 240 average in the association.

WTG! 🙂

Jim Simon fires 300 in Patriots league

I mentioned Jim Simon for a 298 game last week in the Westgate Mixed league, but he also bowls the Patriots league, and had a 300 game in it the other night. His teammate, Eric Derochers, got the video below, which he allowed me to upload to the Facebook page:

WTG Jimmy! 🙂

Jim Simon bowls 298, Greg Andrews 290 in Westgate Mixed

And there were a couple of scores from last Wednesday night in the Westgate Mixed league, both coming in the form of 11 in a row: Jim Simon’s 298 and Greg Andrews’s 290. Nice bowling, guys! 🙂

Nathan Crouse fires 300 in Coke league

I’ve seen him get close to having a game mentioned here a few times since I’ve started following the Coke league, and Nathan Crouse finally broke through last night with a 300 game. I have the last strike on video, below:

WTG Nate! 🙂

Tom Hedding shoots 814, “Mr. 900” 300 to lead Apr. 23 NAT scoring

I hope to have results from the tournament soon, but, to get the honor scores from today’s Northeast Amateur Tournament handicap doubles event out of the way, Tom Hedding led the way with 278-268-268 for an 814 set. “Mr. 900” Hakim Emmanuel added to the scoring with a 300 game, and Jeff Santos (299), Matt Richard (299), and Stan Lewis (295) also had 11 in a row games.

Good work guys! 🙂

Clayton E. Hill posts 290 game in state tournament in Gardner

Got word on Facebook that Clayton E. Hill, a member of Eileen On Me in my Wednesday league, put up a 290 game today in the doubles event of the state tournament in Gardner. WTG! 🙂
