Spencer Robarge and Annalise OBryant won the 2026 Storm PBA/PWBA Striking Against Breast Cancer Mixed Doubles after a close finish at Copperfield Bowl in Houston.
The young pair entered Sunday’s 12-game round-robin match play with a 52-pin lead, but their position changed during the second half of match play.
Graham Fach and Breanna Clemmer erased a 111-pin gap during the 10th game and moved ahead of the leaders, together with Deo Benard and Rocio Restrepo-Hostetler, who also passed Robarge and OBryant.
Fach and Clemmer entered the position round in first place, but their lead did not last. The Russos also had an opportunity to move into the top position, but an unfortunate break at the end shut down their hopes.
That left the championship in the hands of Robarge and OBryant, along with Benard and Restrepo-Hostetler.
OBryant doubled in the 10th frame before Robarge struck on his first shot. Benard then left the 2-4-7-8 and failed to convert the spare, giving Robarge the chance to close out the tournament.
The 23-year-old rookie delivered the strike and secured the title for his team.
Robarge earned the second PBA Tour title of his rookie season after winning the PBA Ohio Classic, joining Alex Horton as the second rookie to win two PBA Tour titles during the 2026 season, while OBryant collected her first PWBA Tour title.
The SABC Mixed Doubles was the second-to-last title event of the 2026 PBA Tour season.
The final stop will be the Storm Lucky Larsen Masters, scheduled for August 21-31 at Olympia Bowling in Helsingborg, Sweden.
