Toby is a seasoned tournament bowler who I expect to be our first repeat champion since TERRY LANKSTER about nine months ago. I also expect Toby to repeat as our crown holder because his book average is the highest in the field and he is known to strike a lot. Time will tell if I’m right. Scores were high during qualifying with the TOP EIGHT qualifiers scoring 847 or better for four games. The Top Eight with their totals follow: 1. Ryan Nelson 982 + 32 (handicap) = 1,014 2. Toby Lee 986 + 0 = 986 3. Jason Nagro 821 + 84 = 905 4. Tom Andres Jr. 839 + 52 = 891 5. Doug Nace 724 + 160 = 884 6. Terry Lankster 861 + 20 = 881 7. David Tempel 736 + 120 = 856 8. Eric Johnson 847 + 0 = 847 Toby Lee out scored top qualifier Ryan Nelson 247 to 179 for the right to challenge reigning “KING OF THE HILL” Joe Dube. In the game for the crown Toby won again, defeating Mister Dube 231 to 166. For the day Toby averaged a solid 244 (scratch).
