KSBO Bowlers, Sponsors, Supporters, Family and Friends,
In this newsletter I am detailing the results of the 38th Annual KSBO Swiss Trios.
RESULTS OF THE 38TH ANNUAL KSBO SWISS TRIOS HELD AT ALL STAR LANES & CASINO ON MARCH 21ST, 2026.
SPONSORS:
ALL STAR LANES & CASINO. All Star Lanes & Casino has sponsored our Swiss Trios for 16 years in a row. Thank You Sara Harness and the Staff of All Star Lanes for being such a great host and for being such a steadfast supporter and sponsor of the KSBO.
AXIS POINT PRO SHOP. Curtis and Charm Messer have sponsored the Swiss Trios for the past 6 years. We appreciate the support of Axis Point Pro Shop and know that Curtis and Charm are always there to help support the sport we all love.
LAKESIDE INDUSTRIES. Lakeside Industries is our Season Sponsor since 2017. It’s great to also have them sponsor this Swiss tournament for the past 3 years. Huge thanks to Bret McGuire for being such a great supporter of our organization.
This year’s KSBO Swiss Trios was the biggest turnout of a Swiss Trio since the 29th KSBO Swiss Trios back in the 43rd season of KSBO when we had 29 teams. For this Swiss Trios, we had 28 teams. It was also the largest tournament for KSBO this year at 84 bowlers, and largest turnout since the KSBO Quad Swiss in 2019 when we had 92 bowlers. THANK YOU to everyone who laced them up and bowled the tournament this year!!
NEW THIS YEAR – This year we wanted to try something new to see how well it worked out. So, we bowled 8 games of Team Matchplay in one day instead of like previous years where we bowled 12 games of Team Matchplay over two days (6 games each day). Looks like it was a HUGE success. Time will tell.
The first match was determined by lane draw at check-in and the remaining 7 games were all position rounds (based on a teams point total) to determine the tournament champions. Teams could win up to five points per match (one point for an individual win and two points for a team win.
After the first game we had only one team that swept, earning five points. However, there were six teams with four points and six teams with 3 points. So, they were pretty bunched up early.
Midway through, we had one team that looked like they wanted to pull away from the pack early. The Top 10 teams after game four were the teams “WE STOLE EVAN’S MAN” at 17 points with the team “ANYTHING POSSIBLE” close behind at 16 points, followed by “WHERE’S THE BRACKET TABLE” and “COMBS” both tied at 14 points. “A to Z PLUMBING” was at 13.5 points, with “MOEN WITH THE FLOW” at 13 points, “CCT: at 12.5 points and “STORM – SOUTH SOUND TOUR”, “BISHOP’S TEAM”, and “BUCKY’S BUNCH” all tied at 12 points. Two more teams were tied at 11 points and four teams were tied at 10 points. So, as you can see, over half the field were bunched up within 7 points of each other.
We also had a 300-game thrown in game four by Scott Fulp. He ended up winning the Lakeside Industries 300-game progressive pot for $178.00. Congratulations Scott. The Progressive pot starts over at $100.00 at our next tournament up in Port Angeles.
Game 6 saw a lot of shuffling in the standings. Some teams surged while others faltered a little. But through the fog of war, one team continued to hold the line….and in the lead was “WE STOLE EVAN’S MAN” leading the pack at 26 points and a comfortable lead. The closest team to them was “A to Z PLUMBING” at 21 points. The remaining top ten teams were greater than 7 points behind. So, it looked like it was “WE STOLE EVAN’S MAN” tournament to lose at this point.
Moving into the 8th and final game “WE STOLE EVAN’S MAN” had already gained enough of a points lead to be the tournament winner with 31 points while we had 3 teams tied for second at 23 points and 2 teams tied at 22 points. So, at this point with an 8-point lead, even if “WE STOLE EVAN’S MAN” lost all 5 points in the last game, they had the cushion to win the title.
In the end, “WE STOLE EVAN’S MAN” earned the championship. The team was Bill Bachteler (4 points, 1750 pins), Anthony Sanders (7 points, 2001 pins), and Nick Bachteler (7 points, 1894 pins). As a team they won 14 team points finishing with 32 points and 5645 total pin fall. This is title #5 for Bill (1 Trio, 2 Quads, 1 Doubles). For Anthony this is title #6 (3 Singles, 1 Trio, 2 Quads). And for Nick this is title #11 (6 Singles, 2 Trios, 2 Quads, 1 Doubles). Congratulations on a decisive win gentlemen!
We paid nine places plus a High Team Game out of the Money. So, behind “WE STOLE EVAN’S MAN” were “WHERE’S THE BRACKET TABLE” at 27 points and 5543 pins, “JUST LIKE TUESDAY” at 27 points and 4954 pins, “SLAMMERS” at 26 points and 5326 pins, “STORM SOUTH SOUND TOUR” at 24 points and 5396 pins, “COMBS” with 24 points and 5208 pins, “BISHOP’S TEAM” with 24 points and 4990 pins, “D.T.S” with 23 points and 5024 pins, and “WE FIT NOW” with 23 points and 4810 pins.
The High Team Game out of the Money is determined in the last game of the tournament. The team “NICHOLS” shot 640 to take home $330.00 ($110.00 each). The team was Carl Nichols (202), Skilur Lammi (169), and Kyle Nichols (269).
Once again, KSBO would like to thank All Star Lanes and Casino for hosting such a large event. The Swiss Trios is always a big undertaking, and as usual, All Star Lanes and their staff did a great job. Our cups were always full and the food was hot and tasty!
