St. Paul USBC Youth Bowler helps write a new chapter in the history book.
St. Paul Association Manager Matt Lang presents Jason Price the National Youth Champions Award.	A new chapter in bowling's history began Friday July 13, 2007 with the the kick off of the inaugural United States Bowling Congress Youth Open championships at AMF Thruway Lanes in Buffalo, N.Y.. The Youth Open Championship, a nine-day tournament that was modeled after the USBC Open and Women's Championships, drew a field of 1,897 bowlers from across the country and even several foreign countries. The tournament is broken into four average divisions (129 and below, 130-159, 160-189 and 190 and above) and is based on actual pinfall. One out of every four entrants in team, doubles and singles will receive scholarships, while one in six will receive scholarships in all-events. A St Paul Youth Bowler was are part of the event's first group of champions. In Division 1 All-Events, Jason Price of Inver Grove Heights, was the high finisher with 1,915. Jason's scores were pretty impressive shooting 617 in Singles, 644 in Doubles and 654 in the Team event. In all, 20 champions were crowned in four average-based divisions and an estimated $50,000 in scholarships will be distributed. Congratulations Jason Price
