Jon Matunas Champion at BuddieProShop.com SIngles

  • Sun, April 23, 2023

Jon Matunas won his third title with a win at the BuddiesProShop.com Singles at Nutmeg Bowl. He qualified off the last squad with a 1135 then survived the eliminator format with games of 180, 221, 234, 223 and 211 on the lower scoring pattern to earn a spot in the championship match.  Jon shot 223 to Tiler Levesque's 175 to take home the first place prize of $1,500.  He adds this to his first win in 2009 at Westgate Lanes and his second in 2015 at Lang's.  

The weekend was sponsored by the longest running supporter of NEBA - BuddiesProShop.com - which has a store at Nutmeg Bowl.  Owner Chris Forry's interest in NEBA had led to adding $1,500 for the Annual Awards, $1,000 to this tournament and for the past two years a season's series in honor of his dad.  Chris and his wife Janine are sponsoring the $10,000 Paul Forry Memorial Series for a second year.  The top eight finishers at this tournament qualified for the finals of the series.  Thank you to the Forry family as well as all our other sponsors.
