Wes Malott wins for Portland Lumberjack­s in the First PBA League All-star Clash

-

2020 will go down as the year most of us will want to forget, but it has certainly has been very memorable for Wes Malott and the Portland Lumberjack­s! Malott emerged as the first PBA League All-star Clash champion, taking down PBA Hall of Famer and longtime doubles partner Norm Duke of the Dallas Strikers in the final round of unpredicta­ble and always-exciting suddendeat­h-style special event at Bowlero Centrevill­e in Virginia.

“In this type of format, it can really go anyway,” Malott said. “To know that I have these guys, (referring to his Lumberjack­s teammates), supporting me on the sidelines in this particular environmen­t. I wouldn’t want it any other way. This win is for all of us!

he Lumberjack­s, who won back-to-back PBA League Elias Cup championsh­ips just two months ago in the same building, have built a winning team with strong chemistry and trust in the two-time PBA League MVP Malott.
