Dan Matasek won his first ABT Masters title in our Firecracker Singles event at Brunswick Zone Thunderbird. Dan was the top qualifier for the top twelve finals, earning him a bye in the first two rounds of match play. In round three, he defeated Jason Wojnar 194-173 to earn his berth in the title match. Joining him there was Butch Stilke, who qualified 11th then advanced by defeating Davey Rosen 208-192, Dean Mueller 197-173, and Paul Bober 215-172. The championship was decided quickly as Dan strung an eight-bagger from the second to the ninth frames as he pulled away to the 256-216 victory.
