Jones won his second title of the season and his 12th in the last four seasons, defeating PBA Hall of Famer Pete Weber, 257-191 last Sunday to win the 2008 GEICO Classic at AMF Babylon Lanes, West Babylon, N.Y.
Jones was a machine in his three victories last Sunday, shooting 269 and 268 in his first two wins. While he slowed down a little in the title match, the top-seeded Weber opened in the third and fourth frames, which was all Jones needed. After single-pin conversions in the fourth and fifth frames, Jones struck in the seventh, eighth and ninth to clinch the victory, his second career win on Long Island.
