By now every team has bowled each other once, so next week is the Fall 2002 position round. But enough about next week, you came here to read about this week. The fifth week saw one team climb in the standings, while one team slipped. Janelle (Laube) Lamar picked up this week's high game (180) and series (466) for the women. As for the men, Ken M. Wilson snagged this week's high game with a 195, and high series was earned by Carl Goetz with a 559. Read on for all the rest of the details!

First up, on lanes 17 & 18: Top Guns had a rendezvous with Team 5. Though reinforced by Bob Brunker with his below-average 473 series, Top Guns accomplished only 1 win against Team 5. Countering this, David Parre called the shots for Team 5 with his above-average 506 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Top Guns drop 1 spot in the standings to 2nd place, while Team 5 moves 1 spot to 1st.

On lanes 19 & 20: Team 6 sparred with Pop Gunns. In spite of the prowess of Janelle (Laube) Lamar, Doug Erickson with their 466 series, with kudos to #1 Power-Ranked and Most Valuable Bowler Janelle Lamar as well as #1 Head-to-Head , Team 6 accomplished only 1 win against Pop Gunns. On the other side, #1 Head-to-Head Carl Goetz dominated Pop Gunns with his above-average 559 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Team 6 remains in 5th place, while Pop Gunns remain in 3rd.

Finally, down on lanes 21 & 22: GRRR deliberately ate cheese sticks in front of UnaBowlers. In spite of top-billing by Byron Hester with his below-average 363 series, GRRR got swept by the UnaBowlers. Simultaneously, Justin Strelow mastered the UnaBowlers with his 463 as they swept the competition. GRRR remains in 6th place, while the UnaBowlers remain in 4th.
