*** torres captures classic crown ***

Gwen Torres survived three rounds of match play to win her first ABT Classic title in our Presidents Day event at AMF Rolling Meadows. Gwen qualified fifth for the match play finals and advanced to the championship match by defeating Herman Robke 204-191 and Ray Bartman 233-229. Her opponent for the title was Frank Kirchman who qualified fourth then defeated Greg Gates 209-180 and Jan Flynn 215-189. The championship match was close from start to finish with never more than a mark separating the two bowlers. Gwen finished up first and rolled a spare and a strike in the tenth leaving Frank with a chance to win. Needing a strike in the tenth, Frank pulled his first shot a little high, making Gwen the winner by the final score of 208-204.

Champion's Profile: Gwen Torres is 32 years old and employed as a lab technician. She is married to Shorty and they have three children: Nathan, Sammy and Sydney, ages 13, 8, and 5. Gwen has been bowling for seven years and currently bowls league at Brunswick Zone Lakehurst. She has a high game of 225 and a 560 high series to her credit. Gwen was using a Brunswick Zone drilled by Jim Erickson at Sunset Bowl. She credits her husband Shorty and Rudy Castro as having helped her to improve her game. Gwen thanked her husband for encouraging her to keep bowling because she was ready to give up. She also thanked the ABT and Rolling Meadows for having the event. Her winnings will be used to take the children on a shopping spree. Gwen said that she was really excited about winning and now she hopes she can do it again.

congratulations Gwen!
