They will be taking the top 24 to the brackets. The top 8 seeds will get first round byes! You will get at least 2 games, and it only costs $10.

    Mark your calendars for another tourney coming up on Feb 25, and going though the 28^th. The 3^rd annual Lincoln Lanes open where you will have a chance to win $1,000. It is a handicap tournament, so don’t miss out. Stop down at Lincoln Lanes, or while you are bowling in League play, ask for a flyer from one of the very courteous employees.
