*** Stilke Wins First at Hawthorn ***

After nine long years of trying Butch Stilke finally landed in the winner's circle when he defeated Ron Sereyka 187-151 in our Labor Day Open at Hawthorn Lanes.

Butch qualified fifth for the top 16 finals and advanced by defeating Cesar Benavides 191-187, Boots Kaas 219-205, and Mike Dugan 203-179. Ron qualified sixth then defeated Linda Carter 184-183, Craig Mueller 195-183, and Mike Martenson Sr. 189-170 to earn his berth in the championship match. Ron struggled in the early part of the title match while Butch stayed clean through seven frames to build a 46-pin advantage. Both bowlers opened in three of the last four frames with Butch's early lead giving him more than enough to hang on to the final 187-151 victory.
