Waxahachie, Texas – Dylan Macon, a former PBA member from Lubbock, Texas, built a 110 pin lead going into the final game position round, then held off Tim Crites’ late charge, and won the third annual PBA Waxahachie Southwest Challenge Sunday at Hilltop Lanes.

Macon finished Saturday’s eight game qualifying round in 19th place, then rebounded averaging over 254 in the five game Casher’s Round to catapult to the lead. In the eight game modified round robin match play finals, Macon continued his torrid pace, averaging 235, though only winning five of his eight matches. Crites went 7-1 in the match play to narrow the lead, but Macon was not to be denied his first PBA win and the $2,450 winner’s check. As a non-member, Macon won’t receive credit for a PBA title

The PBA Southwest Region’s next tournament will be the PBA Fort Sill Southwest Open at Twin Oaks Lanes at Fort Sill, Okla., July 16-18.
