CHAMPIONS CROWNED FROM
2022 BOWLING.COM YOUTH OPEN CHAMPIONSHIPS
ARLINGTON, Texas – The winners in each of the four age-based divisions at the 2022 Bowling.com Youth Open Championships have been determined by the International Bowling Campus Youth Development team.
The 2022 Youth Open Championships, a non-qualifying tournament open to all United States Bowling Congress Youth members, was contested at Spectrum Entertainment Complex in Wyoming, Michigan, and held July 13-31.
Bowlers in the 18-and-under, 15-and-under, 12-and-under and 10-and-under divisions earned more than $82,000 in scholarship prizes at this year’s tournament and won national titles in four-player team, doubles, singles and all-events.
Each discipline featured a scratch and optional handicap division, with 766 bowlers and 162 teams participating in the 2022 edition.
Breaking down the numbers from Spectrum Entertainment Complex, the 2022 tournament was highlighted by a group of young athletes finding success in several events, with 23 players claiming multiple titles. From that group of champions, four recorded victories in three events.
The bowlers claiming three titles were Mackenzie Keane of East Brunswick, New Jersey (U18 Girls Scratch Doubles, U18 Girls Scratch Singles and U18 Girls Scratch All-Events), Courtney Delaney of Rockford, Michigan (U18 Girls Handicap Doubles, U18 Girls Handicap Singles and U18 Girls Handicap All-Events), Jacob Porter of Gainesville, Florida (U18 Team Handicap, U15 Boys Handicap All-Events and U15 Boys Handicap Singles) and Alyssa Randisi of the Brooklyn borough of New York City (U10 Team Handicap, U10 Girls Handicap All-Events and U10 Handicap Doubles).
Additionally, four bowlers managed to keep Youth Open Championships winning streaks intact by claiming victories this year in Michigan.
Katelyn Abigania (U15 Girls Scratch All-Events – 1,912) and Elias O’Hollaren (U15 Scratch Team), both of San Diego, won Youth Open Championships titles for the third year in a row while Sebastian Huffman of Las Vegas and Donaven Kline of Jackson, New Jersey, went one better by finding the winner’s circle at the event for the fourth consecutive time.
Huffman kept his streak alive by teaming up with O’Hollaren, Keegan Alexander of Killeen, Texas, and Aidan Furukawa of Sunbury, Ohio, to help I’m an NFT get to the top of the U15 Scratch Team standings with 2,637.
Alexander and Furukawa also went on to win the U15 Scratch Doubles title with 1,365.
Kline captured two victories to keep his Youth Open Championships run going. He partnered with Dawson Kohl of Dyersville, Iowa, to win U12 Scratch Doubles (1,401), and that helped propel him to the U12 Scratch All-Events crown as well (2,023).
The highest all-events set authored at this year’s tournament came in the U18 boys division where Jordan Malott of Austin, Texas, finished with a nine-game total of 2,117, which was good for a 235.22 average.
Malott took home a team title as well, joining Brandon Bohn of Jackson, New Jersey, James Bennett of Huntingtown, Maryland, and Alexander Horton of Douglassville, Pennsylvania, to push Purple Slammer to the top of the U18 Scratch Team standings with 2,701.
Keane wasn’t far behind en route to capturing the U18 Girls Scratch All-Events crown. She put up 2,107 (a 234.11 average) thanks to sets of 572, 782 and 753.
Daniel Hong of Fullerton, California, and Luke Switalski of Oak Forest, Illinois, etched their names in the Youth Open Championships record book by authoring perfect games at this year’s event.
The perfect game wasn’t the only highlight for Hong, who partnered with Nihal Mareedu of Union City, California, to win the U18 Handicap Doubles title with 1,477.
Switalski didn’t capture a title at this year’s Youth Open Championships as a fourth-place finish in U15 Boys Scratch All-Events (2,033) was his top finish; nonetheless, he made this year’s tournament experience memorable by notching not one but two 300 games.
Bowling.com awards a $100 scholarship to any competitor who rolls a 300 game or 800 series during the Youth Open Championships.
The 2023 Youth Open Championships will take place July 12-14, 21-23 and 29-30 in the Indianapolis area.
