soon2b AZ star no one, i don't care who you are can average 279 on ANY shot for any length of time. That said, i believe Matt OGrady has a shot if he keeps his head in the game. I've seen the kid bowl and when he's on look out. That said, i haven't seen any of the others you have mentioned bowl. And as previously stated, no one is a shoe in in bowling and we all know that. Good luck to everyone making the trip out there.

Mop is a funny guy.....I think what's even funnier is that the top guys and girls that make Jr Team USA almost always(well maybe a high percentage) make the Amatuer Team USA team as well.  2 Years ago Scott Norton who was a jr bowler at the time made Team USA as well as winning the top spot on Amatuer team USA.  Since then former youth bowlers such as Andrew Cain, Sean Rash, Mike Remaklus, Anita Manns, and Shannon Puhlowsky have all made Amatuer Team USA as youth bowlers.  But you would already know that since you are THE MAN

BTW, I just got confirmation from one of my best friends Nathan Bolden from Maryland that he is going.  Be on the lookout, he's been practicing on various sport shots hours a day since last year's Junior Gold preparing for this tournament.  He has the experience and physical game to get there as long as he doesn't fry out.  Not alot of people have heard of him outside of the east coast but anyone who has bowled with him can certainly tell you that he is probaly the number 1 youth bowler in the Maryland area.

Jeff Mop, 237.84 was the high sport shot average and it was shot by a guy named Jeff, but not Jeff Mop, and everyone calls you by Mop so that must be your real last name meaning that wasnt you averaging that. Also I believe wheter ir was you or whoever averaged 237 on the sport shot, like 15 pins higher then the next person in the country, that was not a real sport shot because there would not be that much difference otherwise you would be averaging like 290 on a regular shot and would be the best pro bowler in the world better the walter ray and everyone else, but whatever, talk your trash about junior team USA because your such a high class adult you come and make fun of juniors, wow your so not cool

This guy mustn't have the slightest idea of who Jeff Piroozshad(sp?) is or the calibur of bowler that he is.  This guy has credintials up the wazoo so he's entitled to his opinion just like everyone else is when they post their predictions.

Yo, Theo, we start bowling on Monday, so the site should be updated then. Good luck to everybody, and have a safe trip.

Representing the 909, this was B-Car.

As far as team usa goes, it is always hard to say who will make it consider the increase of difficuly over the last three years at jog. But I think a few people that stand a good chance of making the finals and possibly team usa are:

richard brown     eric vermilyea
mike burgess      billy duncan
ian johns         jeffery mersch
ian duetchki      steven black
doane cole        steven novak
ivan miyasato     pj haggerty

  these are 12 guys that are tough as hell when it comes to our sprot and have the game to back it up. good luck to all see you tomorrow.

Hey Guys!  I'm in St. Louis right now in the hotel room getting ready for the tournament, being board off my mind because the rest of my fellow southwestern bowlers don't arrive till tomorrow.  And feeling half dead because i've gotten 8 whole hours of sleep in the last 3 days, so i'm probably just rambling.
      I was wondering how many of you are already here?  Ohh and my pick for the win has to be  Steven Black  by far.

Well after reading all of these replys to this post, I have a few things to say as well.

1. As long as I have known Steven Black, he is good, but you can't make him or anyone else a lock to win JOG.

2. Who makes the team, I wish I could post my team, but I have been out of the Jr. thing for way to long to even know anyones name anymore. But I do know about Doane Cole, Steven Black, Ivan Miyasato. So those could be 3 favorties to make the team.

3. Watch out for a kid named Kyle Wilke, he is from Las Vegas, Nevada. Pretty good bowler, he can play with the big boys as well.

4. Everyone have a safe trip to St. Louis, have a great time and enjoy every minute of it! Good Luck And Bowl Good!
