*** carter captures classic title ***

Chris Carter won his first ABT Classic title in our 12th Anniversary event at Espo's Entertainment Center. Chris was the top qualifier for the top eight match play finals and he advanced by defeating Nick Oswald 202-160 and Bob Reynolds 245-225. His opponent in the championship match was Marcia Kopecky who qualified 8th and advanced by defeating Ron Harast 223-208 and James White 213-177. Marcia bowled well in the title match but unfortunately for her Chris strung 11 strikes in a row rolling the best game of his life on his way to a 292-216 victory.

Champion's Profile: Chris Carter is 30 years old and employed as a service technician for Seigles. He is married to Lynn and they have a 3-year-old child named Harley. Chris has been bowling for 20 years and currently bowls leagues at Bowl Hi and Brunswick Zone Algonquin. His high game is 279 and he has a 709 series to his credit. Chris was using a Brunswick Inferno drilled by Joe Bacagaluppi at Back to Basics Pro Shop inside Espo's. Chris said that competition from his wife Lynn keeps him working on his game. He thanked Lynn for her support and Joe Bacagaluppi for his help with ball choices and drilling expertise. Chris also thanked the ABT and Espo's for having the event. His winnings will be used for more tournaments.

congratulations chris!

Tournament Notes: I want to thank all the volunteers who have stepped up their efforts to ensure that our tournaments continue to operate smoothly during my absence. I can't begin to tell you how greatly your efforts are appreciated. I also want to thank all of the bowlers who showed up this week to make our 12th Anniversary a memorable one. Walking into a full house of bowlers on Sunday was the best medicine I could possibly have and I am looking forward to getting back to you on a full time basis as soon as possible.
