Rob Young bowls 300 in Patriots league

Brockton Bowling Association Hall of Famer Rob Young posted another 300 game last night in the Patriots league, and I’ve been told Rob’s average in that league is now around 245. This bears watching, as there has never been a 240 average for a full season in the association, with Nate Abdow’s 238 in Taunton in 2009-10 being the association’s record. It’s also worth noting that a youth bowler, Stephen Major, also has a 240+ average at Westgate at last check.

Keep it going, Rob! 🙂

Kyle Egan bowls first 300 in youth league

Sarah Gill recently bowled her first 300 game at Westgate Lanes in the travel league, and Kyle Egan joined her as youth bowlers with their first 300 game at Westgate this year, as he had one today in the Saturday Seniors. We did get video of Kyle’s last strike on Facebook, which is shared below:

Congrats Kyle, and I hope this is the first of many for you. 🙂

2016 Bowler of the Year finalists, runner-up Brian Gaskill & champion Steve Huntress

Steve Huntress became the Brockton Bowling Association’s second two-time Bowler of the Year champion after defeating top seed Brian Gaskill 290-193 in the final match. Steve ran through the stepladder by first defeating Matt Richard 235-217, then Keith Kaestner 231-188 in the semifinal. In the final match, Brian had carry problems on the right lane while Steve took it off the sheet after a spare in the first frame.

Oct. 29 No-Tap Shootout results

With seven entries in today’s no-tap tournament, Tim Major won with an 819 and Rich Fulton was 2nd with an 809. The filing of this article under “Honor Scores” is because Tim bowled a natural 300 game in the first game today. WTG Timmy! 🙂

They’re going to do a few different things for the next no-tap tournament, and there could be information before it on the Westgate Facebook page, so keep checking there.

Jim Ferguson shoots 299 at Wonder Bowl

Brockton Bowling Association Hall of Famer Jim Ferguson told me that, last night, while subbing on Alex Aguiar’s team in the Twilight League at Wonder Bowl in New Bedford, he had a 299 game that looked like he’d get all of the breaks, squashing the rack on high hits on the 10th and 11th shots before throwing a good 12th shot, but leaving a 10 pin. WTG still, Jimmy! 🙂

Sean Richard throws 300/819, Chuck Paige II 300 in Patriots league

When “$eany Ka$h” bowls 300, he often combines it with two other nice games, and tonight was one of those cases, as he had games of 260, 300, and 259 for an 819 series in the Patriots league, which should be the first 800 series at Westgate this season. And neither was Seany alone tonight, as Chuck Paige II threw a 300 game of his own.

Congrats to both! 🙂

Tom Hedding shoots 300, Bill Briggs 297 in Patriots league

Sean Richard relayed to me that the Patriots league had its first 300 game of the the season tonight, bowled by “TomTom” Hedding, as well as a 297 by Bill Briggs. Good work, guys!

Note: I think everyone knows that the Patriots league is now the biggest at Westgate in terms of number of teams, so any post I make about the league that night may turn out to be only a partial list when I see the standing sheet following.
