Alex Aguiar throws pair of 300s in NEBA at Westgate Lanes

The highlight of tonight’s 6 PM NEBA tournament squad was a pair of 300 games, the second and last games of the five game qualifying block, thrown by Alex Aguiar. The video I got of the last strike of the first 300 game is below (The original video was shaky, but has been corrected by YouTube, for the most part.):

Boy, do I love having my new phone! 😀

Ryan Yelle wins 2nd BBA Bowler of the Year title; Jeff Carter throws 300

Finally posting to my blog after an exciting day of bowling in the Brockton Bowling Association’s Bowler of the Year tournament.

First, during qualifying, Jeff Carter provided the fireworks with a perfect game. I should mention at this point that I recently bought an HTC EVO V 4G smartphone (the repackaged EVO 3D for Virgin Mobile), and, using the built-in camera, I was able to get video of Jeff’s last strike, which I then posted to the association’s Facebook page, the first of what I hope will be many posts to the page from my new phone.

In the end, however, it was Ryan Yelle who came away with the title, becoming the first two-time Bowler of the Year, after defeating Bob Hamilton in the final match by a score of 194-184. The stepladder finals got off to a dramatic start when Hamilton tied Chuck Gerlach at 214, sending the match to a 9th and 10th frame roll-off, won by Bob 40-27. Bob then defeated Nate Abdow to get into the final match. A photo of Ryan and Bob after the match is also on the association Facebook page.

The association will have a more detailed recap on our website soon.

Danny Khuu posts 300 game in NEBA at E. Providence Lanes

Keith Tantillo was kind enough to inform me that Danny Khuu threw a 300 game this weekend at East Providence Lanes in the NEBA event. The match play results posted by NEBA showed that Khuu finished in the top 16, with Dave Debiase of Wallingford, CT defeating Alex Aguiar 258-225 for the title. In addition to Aguiar and Khuu, Donie Corneau and Rich Fulton were the other Westgate Lanes league bowlers that cashed in the event.
