Dec. 2011 People’s Tournament results

The People’s Tournament reported that Rich LeCain (Westgate Lanes, 205 avg.) was the winner of the event held last weekend at Westgate Lanes. Rich defeated Zach Leverant (Westgate Lanes, 170 avg.) by a score (with handicaps) of 227-189 in the title match. Also representing Westgate Lanes, Paris Cook (198 avg.) was also in the semifinals.

As a side note that I neglected to mention previously, Danny Khuu won the tournament director’s strike jackpot by posting a 299 game during Saturday’s qualifying. Congrats to Danny on the honor score (though he can’t get an award for it).

Carl Nordstrom posts first 800 series of 2011-12 in Thursday Handicap Doubles

This is about as breaking as you’ll ever see news on my blog, as I found out about this just tonight from Adam Johndrow, who was working tonight…

Congrats to Carl Nordstrom on having the first 800 series of the season at Westgate Lanes, as he went 289-258-289 for an 836 set tonight in the Thursday Handicap Doubles League. Good job, Carl! 😀

Shirley Major, Paul M. Chase score big in Thursday Handicap Doubles

The big scores Thursday night were not limited to the Patriots league, as the Thursday Handicap Doubles league had a couple worth mentioning…

First, Shirley Major posted the first 700 series by a woman at Westgate Lanes this season by throwing a 266 high game in a 712 series. Also, Paul M. Chase joined the fun by tossing an 11 in a row 290 game. Paul finished with a 769 set.

Congrats to both Shirley and Paul! 😀

Jim Donaher runs 12 strikes in Brockton Ten Pin

Congrats to Jim Donaher on throwing a perfect 300 game Tuesday night in the Brockton Ten Pin Invitational league. When I was told about the game, Marcia wanted me to also note that this is Jim’s first perfect game in over 50 years as a league bowler at Westgate Lanes.

I’ll note the series when I see it in the updated league standings. Congrats again Jim! 😀

Keith Tantillo, “Hawk” Earle throw honor scores in Monday Summer Doubles

I’m not sure when two of these were, but there were three honor scores this summer season in the Monday doubles league that I’ve only become aware of last night (Wed. night). In the last month, Keith Tantillo had a 300 game, and Brian “Hawk” Earle had an 11 in a row 299 game. I can, however, pin down an exact date for an additional honor score for “Hawk”: he had a 300 game of his own in the league this Monday night.

Congrats to both Keith and “Hawk.” 😀
