RESULTS
ARLINGTON, Texas - Champions have been announced at the 2018 Bowling.com Youth Open Championships, which recently welcomed United States Bowling Congress Youth members to the Dallas area as part of the Junior Gold Championships presented by the Brands of Ebonite International.
The 2018 event was held at Cityview Lanes in Fort Worth, Texas, on July 12-13, 20-22 and 28-29. Bowlers competed for titles in four-player team, doubles, singles and all-events competition in four age-based divisions - 20-and-under, 15-and-under, 12-and-under, 10-and-under - with separate divisions for boys and girls. There also were optional handicap divisions in each event.
Ryan Winters of Livonia, Michigan, capped his Youth Open Championships career by winning his third consecutive U20 all-events title. Winters, a Junior Team USA member in 2018, posted sets of 730 in doubles, 714 in team and 702 in singles for a winning score of 2,146.
Olivia Farwell of Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, and Alexis Neuer of Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, successfully defended their doubles title in the girls U20 division, winning with a 1,371 total. Farwell, who will be a Junior Team USA member in 2019, led the way with a 750 series, while Neuer, who's on Junior Team USA 2018, added 621.
Madison Janack of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, rolled one of eight 300 games at the Youth Open Championships to claim the girls U20 singles title with a 716 total. Janack, also a member of Junior Team USA in 2018, had games of 190 and 226 before connecting for her perfect game.
Perfect games also were rolled by Zachary Burkhalter of Winona, Minnesota; Zachary Carter of Portage, Indiana; Cameron Hurwitz of Rochester, New York; Jordan Malott of Austin, Texas; Tyler Michel of Chesapeake, Virginia; Manuel Sanchez of Chicago; and Zach Singer of Buffalo Grove, Illinois.
Houston's Christian Garcia captured two titles in the U15 boys division, taking all-events with a 2,106 total and singles with a 752 set.
