Kevin Thompson defeated Devon Boeck 211-195 to win the Survivor finals at the MAST event at Leisure Lanes in Monroe Sunday. This was Thompson’s sixth career MAST title and first in ten years, having last won at Badger Bowl back in 2014.
Thompson qualified sixth at 946, and posted the cut numbers of 213 in the first round of Survivor play and 258 in the semifinals en route to the win. Boeck qualified fifth at 948, and averaged 258 through the first three rounds of Survivor play to reach the final.
Thompson earned $376 for the win, with Boeck taking home $259 for second. The other Survivor-round payouts Sunday were $166 for 3rd-4th, $132 for 5th-8th, and $102 for 9th-12th. Thompson also earned $135 from the Bet to Win pot.
Forty bowlers competed on Leisure’s house shot. The cut to Survivor round play after four games of qualifying was 909. Chris Jackson led qualifying at 968, earning him fifty bonus points in the M & J Truck and Auto Points Race. Despite the relatively-high scoring pace, there were no honor counts posted Sunday.
The tournament prize fund was bolstered by a $200 donation from tour co-sponsor M & J Truck and Auto. MAST extends a huge Thank You to M & J for their generosity.
