« Inaugural USBC Mixed wraps up in Reno

The top 16 U21 boys and girls and the top 8 U16 boys and girls in All-Events advanced to match-play Masters in best-of-three games bracket format.
As reported earlier, the boys U21 division was totally dominated by the U.S. bowlers. After winning the gold medals in Singles, Doubles, Trios and Team and finishing first to fourth in All-Events, Wesley Low Jr., Michael Tang, Kamron Doyle and Gregory Young Jr. could not clash before the semifinals and that was exactly what happened.
L-R Tang, Doyle, Young and Low.
Tang fired games of 268 and 287 to sweep Singles champion Doyle (243, 222), two-games-to-none. Young, who was fourth in All-Events, defeated All-Events winner Low in the decider by one pin, 216-215, to set up a title match against Tang.
Young rebounded from a 0-1 deficit (228-249) with back-to-back wins, 265-244 and 239-189, to wrap up the title. Tang received silver and Doyle and Low shared the bronze medal.
The U.S. boys won all six gold medals plus three silver and four bronze medals, just one silver medal (in Singles) short off the maximum medals possible (6-4-4).
The title match in the girls’ Under-21 Masters was also an all-U.S. affair with Sydney Brummett and Singles champion Gazmine Mason squaring off.
Both had to go the distance in the semifinals. Mason eliminated teammate Breanna Clemmer, 238-199, in the deciding third game, while Brummett flew past Kristie López of Puerto Rico, 258-181.
L-R Clemmer, Brummett and Mason.
Brummett rolled another 258 in the first game of the title match to take a 1-0 lead, but Mason leveled the match with 212-179. In a low-scoring decider, Brummett got away with a 168-156 win to seal the victory.
The biggest upset came in the opening Round of 16, when No. 16 No. 16 Ana Patricia Morales of Guatemala ousted three-time gold medalist Laura Plaza of Colombia, 2-0.
The Colombian girls led the medal standing with three gold and one silver, just ahead of the U.S. girls who won eight medals, including two gold, four silver and two bronze medals, to give Junior Team USA the No. 1 spot in the overall medal tally with 8 gold, 7 silver and 6 bronze.
