Central Division Open Singles

MLPLBA hosted the Central Division Open Singles tournament on August 8-9, 2015. Eleven bowlers participated. Max Cavender edged out three time national champion Bob Schneider to capture the 2015 Central Division Singles title.  Bob had a 10 to 5 point advantage in the 18 shot final, but Max played some dynamic bowls to even up the match at 12 and then forge ahead for the win.   Both players traded shot after shot throughout the game which made it a very exciting and entertaining event to watch.  In the battle for third place, Steve Nelson played his usual steady and deadly bowls to defeat Anna Witt.   Jim Grzybowski was at the top of his game and took out Rob Behncke for first place in Flight A.  Pat Wimmer outlasted Glen Weber to win Flight B. The tournament director was Anna Witt. Special thanks to our volunteer markers, John Kirkwood, Margie Knitter, and Michael Bennett. Results were:
