On Nov. 20 at Hi-Joy Bowl in Port Orchard, the team of Melissa Clewis, Tyler Hogstrom, Chris Rowland and Brian Irwin won the Hi-Joy Bowl/Artisan Tile & Mosaic Quad Swiss tournament that set a record for teams (26 of them). It was the first KSBO win for Hogstrom and Rowland and the second title for Clewis and Irwin.
Next up is the Lakeside Industries Tournament set for Dec. 3 at Hi-Joy Bowl. This is also the Toys for Tots event. The KSB has been involved with Toys for Tots since 1985 and has raised almost $15,000 for the charity. Bowlers are asked to bring non-perishable items and new toys or money to donate. This is the last KSBO Tournament before the holiday break.
