It was a beautiful overcast Phoenix day outside for today's event. Today we saw 13 bowlers to start the 2025 season. Today bowlers bowled on the E&BC Tournaments Amethyst oil pattern. This pattern dictated the bowler to find the friction as quickly as possible and not to play too far outside where there was no hook. The transition opened up the lanes quite a bit. The fresh condition caused the down lane to be more tight. After the squad was completed we took the top 3 bowlers for a one game eliminator. Our leader and winner of the first 2025 season event and first female bowler winner was Kassandra Kelley (1153, 234), who bowled quite well all day. Our second place finisher was Derek Hughes (1139, 213). 3rd place went to Gabriel Edgerton (1134, 173). It was nice of the crew at Bowlero Union Hills work as hard as they did to make sure the event went on without hardly any downtime. We would to thank you to all who came out in support of this event. To be eligible to bowl the year-end event you will need to bowl at least 2 events prior. Our next event will be February 15th, 2025.
