"When you think of the Backhaul Direct Hoosier Classic, you think of excellence”, says Greg Harris, President and CEO of Indianapolis based Backhaul Direct. “This is the most competitive field of the year as we only allow one team from each school in each division…bring your best and compete against the rest!
For the second consecutive year, Columbia 300 will sponsor the Columbia 300 Friday Night Eliminator on February 18, 2011 at 7:00 PM open to all USBC Collegiate and USBC Youth bowlers. The $30.00 entry fee guarantees a shot at a $500.00 first place prize for any bowler and is contested on the demanding U.S. Open lane condition. The top high school bowler, regardless of place of finish, will receive a scholarship award of $200.00.
During the Eliminator, Columbia 300 will be presenting its popular Demo Days program on 8 adjacent lanes to the tournament. PBA star Chris Barnes will headline the demo days open to competitors, family, friends, and spectators. Barnes will be on hand Friday night and all day Saturday to sign autographs, take pictures, and talk about Columbia 300’s new releases, the World Beater and Ransom.
We are extremely excited to continue to partner with Backhaul Direct for the Hoosier Classic,” stated Columbia 300 Brand Manager Bugsy Kelly. “This tournament is building a great tradition and is known for it’s challenging conditions. Columbia 300 is very happy to be on board with such a great event."
