The second week of Spring 2002 saw two teams climb in the standings, while two teams slipped. One bowler roll a new personal best game. Kathy Smith picked up this week's high game (191) and series (493) for the women, while Pat Searcy earned this week's high game (242) and series (601) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!

First up, on lanes 1 & 2: Team 3 shared a few beers with Fab Four. Although blessed by Kathy Smith with her 493 series, Team 3 got swept by Fab Four. Across the ball return, Most Valuable Bowler Nik Domann ruled Fab Four with his miraculous 474 as they swept the competition. Team 3 drops 1 spot in the standings to 4th place, while Fab Four moves 1 spot to 1st.

Finally, down on lanes 3 & 4: Top Guns alternated splits with Team 2. Even though highlighted by the skills of Pat Searcy with his breathtaking 601 series, Top Guns accomplished only 1 win against Team 2. In the meantime, #1 Power Ranked and #1 Head-to-Head Jeff Gragg reigned supreme in Team 2 with his phenomenal 527 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Top Guns drop 1 spot in the standings to 2nd place, while Team 2 moves 1 spot to 3rd.

Bowlers paying far too much for well vodka at The 200 Club include: Bill Krejci (200) and Pat Searcy (242,206)
