The USBA Tournament Series was at the home of Mankato State Bowling Team at the Bullpen in Mankato, Minnesota on April 29, 2018. The tournament had 22 youth entries and awarded $704 in scholarships in 2 different flights. We had youth bowlers representing Minnesota, Wisconsin, North and South Dakota, Iowa, and Canada today!
High qualifier for the day was Scott Ketch. Today’s Last Chance Shoot Out winner for $40 was Cody Larson. The bowlers battled on 2012 Asian Youth Championship (45 feet). Congratulations to Zach Czapiewski for winning his spot at Jr Gold in Dallas.
