ABEL DAVID CAPTURES HIS FIRST TITLE AT HERRILL LANES

Posted On: October 12, 2014

New Hyde Park, NY:  Abel David, a 57 year old IT Director from Franklin Square, NY won his first LIGBT title at Herrill Lanes. Abel shot a 227 giving him a 5 pin victory and the $1,000 top prize. Finishing second was Dan Goldberg, Douglaston, NY with a 222 worth $500. Rounding out the top 5 was third place finisher Dave Martorella, Meriden, CT with a 221 worth $300, David Chu, New York, NY took fourth place with a 209 worth $250, and fifth went to Joe Evers, Islip Terrace, NY with a 207 earning him $200.

Abel’s consistency throughout the shootout gave him the victory. Except for an open in the fourth frame Abel marked in every frame while all of the other shootout competitors had multiple opens. In fact Abel never doubled in the match and still won! Abel’s victory was still not determined until the last frame as both Dan Goldberg and Dave Martorella could have won the title with a strike in the tenth.

The Herrill Lanes tournament drew a great fall crowd of 101 entries, advanced 18 bowlers to the finals, and paid out $3,640. Kegel’s 39 foot Middle Road pattern was used and scoring was moderate; the cut was 686 in the 1pm squad and 706 in the 3pm squad. High series of the tournament was shot by Gary Paulsen, Massapequa, NY with a 751 series in the 3pm squad.

LIGBT’s next tournament is at Farmingdale Lanes on Sunday, October 19th. Top prizes are guaranteed to pay $1,000 & $500. One in 6 each squad advances to the finals and will cash for a minimum of $60.

JOE HATCHETT WINS $3,000 AT LIGBT MAJOR

Posted On: September 01, 2014

Babylon, NY:  Joe Hatchett, a 60 year old right hander from New York City, won his first LIGBT title worth $3,000 at AMF Babylon. In a low scoring title match Joe finished strong to shoot a 207 to defeat second place finisher John Mienkiewicz, Plainview, NY who shot a 192 worth $1,500. Finishing third, and earning $750, was Julian Valdaro, a 20 year old left hand bowler from Bayshore, NY with a 190.

The shootout at AMF Babylon was a lesson in futility. All 3 bowlers had at least 2 opens by the 5th frame. Despite the fact Joe did not hit the head pin for 5 consecutive frames on his first ball he adjusted his line and finished the match with 7 consecutive marks. Going into the 10th frame all 3 bowlers were within 7 pins. Joe was the only competitor to mark in the tenth which gave him his first title.

The Labor Day Major shootout produced some of the lowest scores in LIGBT’s 6 year history. The tough scoring conditions can be attributed to the fact all 3 bowlers were looking for their first LIGBT title, Kegel’s 41 foot Turnpike pattern was used, and there was over $5,000 in prize money up for grabs. The best part of a low scoring match is the winner wasn’t decided until the final frame.

The AMF Babylon Labor Day Major drew a great summer crowd of 232 entries, advanced 45 bowlers to the finals (better than 1 in 3), and paid out $11,110. Scoring on Kegel’s Turnpike pattern was low as the cut scores ranged from 669 to 690. High series of the tournament was shot by Rich Patson, Lindenhurst NY with a 757 series in the Sunday 1pm squad.

LIGBT will begin Season 7 on Sunday, September 21 at AMF Wantagh. The fall schedule will be released shortly. For complete results of the AMF Babylon Major please visit www.ligbtour.com. The LIGBT is sponsored by Brunswick, Kegel, and CLS Custom Upholsterers.
