The cliché is true, winning never gets old,†said Schlegel (Vancouver, Wash.). “The win is the only anything that matters. If you win ugly, who cares, the win is what counts. If you are able to pick up some splits and convert your spares, chances are you are going to do well.â€Schlegel advanced to the finals after defeating the event’s second seed, Henry Gonzalez (Colorado Springs, Colo.), 245-182.Ozio knocked off Bob Brady (Santa Monica, Calif.), 258-231, in the semifinals to advance.Schlegel took home $8,000 for the victory, while Ozio earned $4,500 for second.
