The eleventh week of Fall 2002 saw one team climb in the standings, while one team slipped. Two bowlers set a new personal best series. Freda Schroeder picked up this week's high game (165) and series (466) for the women. As for the men, Corey Weinfurt snagged this week's high game with a 192, and high series was earned by Dennis Laube with a 548. Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 17 & 18: GRRR took turns kicking the ball return with Pop Gunns. While headlined by Sharon Turner with her above-average 433 series, GRRR accomplished only 1 win against Pop Gunns. While that was going down, trifecta-winner (#1 Head-to-Head, #1 Power-Ranked, and Most Valuable Bowler) Dennis Laube oversaw Pop Gunns with his dramatic 548 as his team took the series with 3 wins. GRRR remains in 6th place, while Pop Gunns remain in 2nd.
On lanes 19 & 20: Team 6 chucked gutter balls with Team 5. Showcasing Jim Jones with his breathtaking 500 series, Team 6 celebrated a clean sweep over Team 5. Meanwhile, David Parre drew the spotlight in Team 5 with his below-average 451 despite his team getting swept. Team 6 remains in 4th place, while Team 5 plunges 2 spots to 3rd.
Finally, down on lanes 21 & 22: UnaBowlers traded lane malfunctions with Top Guns.

On the other half of the score sheet, Bob Brunker ruled Top Guns with his 489 as they swept the competition. UnaBowlers remains in 5th place, while Top Guns jump 2 spots to 1st.
Bowlers slipping under the velvet rope in front of The 200 Club include: No one at all. We sucked.
