*** hara wins back-to-back titles ***

Rick Hara made it back-to-back wins in the Masters Division when he defeated Sheldon Mathis 227-186 in this week's event at Espo's Country Lanes. John Lee opened the stepladder finals by defeating Hank Duncan 210-150. Lee then ousted Flor Serain 227-203. Sheldon Mathis then uncorked a nice 279 scratch game to defeat Lee 295-227 with handicap. The championship match was close for the first four frames, with Mathis holding a slim three-pin lead at that point. Hara took over from there with a five-bagger in frames four through eight to pull away to the final score of 227-186.

Champion's Profile: Rick Hara is 39 years old and employed as a mortgage planner. He is single and has been bowling for 34 years. Rick bowls league at Diversey River Bowl and has a high game of 300 to go along with a high series of 810. Rick thanked the ABT, Espo's, and all the friends who have supported him. He hopes to use his winnings for the ABT Nationals in Vegas.

congratulations rick!
