Island's best bowlers battle for royal titles

by Dave Delgado

Guam - The Budweiser King and Prince of the Lanes were up for grabs yesterday at Central Lanes. Chris Leal overcame a slow start to qualify for the finals of the Prince Title, however Teliann San Nicolas made sure that Leal would not be able to dethrone the reigning Prince of the Lanes champion. 

San Nicolas took an early one-pin lead after two frames and drilled five consecutive strikes to stake her reign on the title and become the first female competitor to win back-to-back titles this year.  San Nicolas easily ousted Leal 225+17 to 153+22.

3rd seed Ricky Duenas took an early lead opening the finals match of the King of the Lanes with a double as Keith Guerrero came storming back with a double and turkey, however Duenas was able to keep his composure to clean up the match, winning the Budweiser King of the Lanes August title 237-187.
