Andrew Anderson won the 2025 PBA LBC National Championships Clash, securing
The Duke trophy and the $25,000 top prize.
The event took place on
September 27 and featured eight finalists representing different divisions of
the LBC National Championships.
The finalists first bowled a four-game seeding round to decide the order for the one-ball eliminator finals. In this format, each player delivered a single shot, with the lowest pinfall leading to elimination after each round.
Connor Chen, representing Boys Junior Handicap, was the first player out, followed by PBA Hall of Famer Chris Barnes. Anderson then survived a roll-off against Robert Morris, winning 7–6 to continue in the competition. Olivia Rogers, Karla Alsgood, and Stephanie Zavala were next eliminated as the field narrowed.
In the championship round, Anderson met Westyn Griffin from the Open Classic division. Both opened with a nine count, but Anderson followed with a strike while Griffin knocked down six. That final shot gave Anderson the victory and secured his place among the Clash champions.
The Clash has been held annually since 2023.
Tom Daugherty won the inaugural event, while Gianna Brandolino claimed the title in 2024.
The 2025 edition awarded $53,000 in total prize money, with $25,000 for first place, $10,000 for second, and $3,000 for all other finalists.
