Mowstowfi wins 3 “X”s NABI title<br />
NABI of Dallas/Fort Worth<br />
hosted the 3 “X” your out<br />
format for the first time at<br />
Forum Bowl May 20.<br />

game and the bottom half of<br />
the field received and “X”. All<br />
bowlers bowled the second<br />
game and again, the bottom<br />
half of the bowlers received an<br />
“X” and so on. Once a bowler<br />
received three “X”s, they were<br />
knocked out of the tournament.<br />
In the top eight finals, Kam<br />
Mowstowfi held off the field<br />
and the “X”s for 15 rounds<br />
and collected $1,500 first place<br />

Editors Correction: In the<br />
last NABI story, I mistakenly<br />
identified Kendrick Dunn-Ford<br />
as a female. I apologize for the<br />
error and I will never assume<br />
a hyphenated last name is a<br />
female again. ~ Genie Franklin<br />
