Speight's website
MENS 17 – 18 SEPTEMBER 2011
Gary Lawson (Canterbury) picked up his 4th Speight’s Victoria Invitation 2-4-2 Pairs on Sunday with first time partner Lance Pascoe (West Coast) beating Alvin Gardiner (Canterbury) and Robbie Bennett (Johnsonville) in the final 12-10. Gardiner and Bennett started the final slowly dropping a loose 5 on the 3rd end to fall behind 8-0 which proved a little too much to pull back in the 12 end final. Lawson and Pascoe showed their class throughout the two days going unbeaten. Lawson’s four titles at Victoria is two more than the next best player in the tournament’s 15 year history.
