*** frank wins first classic title ***

Kevin Frank won his first ABT Classic title by defeating Pete Tagalos 226-177 at Lakewood Bowl.

In match one of the top eight finals, Craig Flesburg 251 defeated Herman Roebke 231 and Tyson Wilson 154. In match two, Joe Maltese 222 defeated Craig Flesburg 209 and Leo Trudeau 196. In match three, Pete Tagalos 219 defeated Joe Maltese 213 and John Angone 179 to advance to the title match against top seed Kevin Frank. A couple of missed spare opportunities for Pete in frames five and six of the championship match allowed Kevin to build a 45-pin lead and he was able to cruise from there.

Champion's Profile: Kevin Frank is 21 years old and currently serving in the U.S. Navy. He is married to Renea and they have two daughters, McKenzi and Kaylie, ages 15 months and four years. Kevin just started bowling a little over a year ago and currently bowls league at Rynish Bowling Center. His high game is 207 and his high series is 579, both of which were bowled in this week's semifinals. Kevin was using a Columbia Reaction Roll drilled by Joe Bacagaluppi at Back to Basics Pro Shop. Kevin credits Dwayne Simpson and his wife Renea as having helped him to improve his game. He thanked them both for all their help and support. Kevin said his winnings would be used for more new equipment and a new pair of jeans. It seems Kevin ran into a bit of a problem with the jeans he was wearing just as the semis began. A strategically placed safety pin allowed him to continue.

CONGRATULATIONS kevin!

Tournament Notes: Congratulations to Larry Helton and John Getta, who broke 285 Pots this week. Larry had a perfect 300 game while John had a fine 289. Nice bowling, guys!
