Summer Ball Leagues – A Big Hit!

Summer bowling ball leagues look to be the choice of local bowlers.  What’s better than bowling a summer league and receiving a new bowling ball at the league’s end?  These leagues are short (15 weeks) and open to new and regular league bowlers.  Don’t have a team?  There are openings for individuals and it’s a great way to meet new friends!

AMF Southwest Lanes Super Ball league started this past Thursday night, May 16, with 18 teams and room for a few more.  League bowls at 7 p.m. Thursday nights, teams are trios and cost is $16 per week per bowler.  Call AMF Southwest at (661) 834-2695 for further information.

Bakersfield Scratch Trio League’s Roll-Off

As the 2012-13 season came to an end, the Bakersfield Scratch Trio league (the only scratch league in Bakersfield) bowled its league roll-off on Monday night, May 6, at Regency Lanes to determine the league’s champion team.  Teams that had won each round composed the roll-off.  The first match of the night was between Team 9 (Jack Dunn, Cody Lewis and Kent Gray) against Team 8 (Tim Henson, PD Richardson and Joe Ramirez).  Although Richardson rolled a solid 240 game, it wasn’t enough for his team as Team 8 was defeated by Team 9 603-655.  Team 9 then went on to bowl against Team 1 (Mike Mayo, Mark Bess and Robert Mayo).  Robert Mayo posted a nice 247 game, but so did Team 9’s Cody Lewis.  Team 1 still could not beat a steady Team 9 and lost 612-635.  Team 9 then came up against Team 7 (Hector Santiago, Aris C. Anadilla and Aris Anadilla).  Team 9’s Kent Gray tried to hold Team 1 off with a nice 233 game, but Team 7 was just too tough to tackle and Team 9 lost 630-678.  The final match of the night was between Team 7 and top-seeded Team 10 (Diz Francisco, Sean Ambrose and Zack Newman).  Newman came out swinging with a nice 246 game but it wasn’t enough to keep his team on top as Team 7 fired back with Santiago’s 232, Aris C. Anadilla’s 209 and Aris Anadilla’s 236 to defeat and become the league champions 677-593. 

The Bakersfield Scratch Trio league will return this fall for the 2013-14 season.  If you are interested in bowling in this league, please contact Diz Francisco at (661) 599-3097.    

Mega Ball 2013
