Daffodil Bowl
Feb. 9th, 2025

Total Paid Out: $14,555.00

 

Wrap Up

THANKS to the Daffodil Staff, the staggering 221 entries Sunday was possible due to the extra time we had for the 10am squad, where we MAXED-OUT with 96 bowlers, with 8 on every pair.  That left no breakdown pair and of course, the only serious breakdown came in the very first game.  Big Thanks to Marvin the mechanic for coming in on his day off to fix and ensure the lanes stayed in working order and Big Thanks to our Bowlers who really made the effort to finish on time (especially lane 13 & 14) so we managed to catch up by the last squad, and we did finish on time!!

The 9-Tap Jackpot got off easy with Gavin Chan & Zack Rule collecting $150.00 each for their 4-Taps.  But that doesn't tell the whole story.  We had the usual (lately) examples of several people stringing 5-Middle Taps or even 5 of 6-Middle Taps, but the highlight Sunday was Jamal Muhammad tossing an amazing TEN TAPS in one game.  Sadly, despite only having TWO frames without Taps, those frames were diabolically placed preventing a shot at both the Front-7 & Middle-7 and the payday that would have resulted.

The Tour really was a 'family affair' this week!  The Cash List included Brothers, Huyen 2nd & Thang Thai 11th, Husband & Wife Marilyn 24th & Red Mateo 40th, plus THREE Father & Son pairs, Andrey 29th & Kaelon Williams 3rd, Paul 33rd & Kelvin Kelly 42nd and an amazing Father & Son TIE for 4th Place Ken Osborne Sr & Ken Osborne Jr. 

1st Place - Johnny Seng who has continued to work hard on improving his game, got into that famous 'groove' again on Sunday.  Johnny's in his 3rd year on the Tour and he's come a looong way since joining as a beginner bowler.  He found Daffodil very much to his liking, putting together a MONSTER 75 pin margin of Victory, for his 4th Career Title.  Johnny had a feeling earlier this week that he was going to do well in the tournament and boy was his feeling right! Wearing his Dexter SST8 shoes and throwing his Storm Road Warrior, Johnny scored an amazing 861 Series for a hefty check of $2,608.00.  He plans on using his winnings to pay off credit card bills.  Johnny wants to thank Tina Tran, Iya Seng, Gavin Chan, Charles Daughery Jr.,Chandra Martinez, Amy Silverhorn, Adriana Martinez, Greg Martinez, Ty Richardson, and Dale Roberts Jr. for cheering him on.  Johnny also enjoys coaching the Franklin Pierce HS Girls Bowling Team.

Side Note: Speaking of Coaching... longtime Tour Member and 3-Time Champion Dan Grass made the drive from Spokane to bowl Sunday (35th).  He has now taken over as the Bowling Coach at Gonzaga University.  Contrats Dan!! 

2nd Place – Huyen Thai, our newest Tour Hall of Fame member, got off to a slow start in the 10am squad, expressing just a little frustration with his bowling.  He stayed with it though, re-entering the next squad and starting with a sweet 259 game, he rode that wave to a great 786, which held up for 2nd Place and a nice check worth $1,163.00.  That boosts his Career Prize Money to $49,785.00, inches from the $50,000.00 CLUB

3rd Place - Kaelon Williams, who is fairly new to the Tour, joining last August, was killing it Sunday.  He shot a HUGE 169 pins above his personal best for a 3-Game format, along with his highest finish to date.  Kaelon's 785 left him just ONE PIN short of a tie for 2nd, earning him a nice payday of $572.00.
