NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 15&16, 4th-place X9XX will throw some gutter balls with 5th-place Those 4 Bowlers (hcp 26). X9XX is expected to roll a little low and get swept; while 4 Bowlers are forecast to raise their average while they rack up a sweep.
- Moving to lanes 17&18, 3rd-place Guttersluts will test their mettle against 10th-place King Pins (hcp 83). Guttersluts might roll a little low, yet still manage to win the series; while King Pins ought to drop their average a bit while they avoid getting swept.
- Then, over on lanes 19&20, 2nd-place Oily Balls will tussle with 1st-place Unstoppabowl (hcp 50). Oily Balls will likely roll decently and win the series; while Unstoppabowl will probably hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
- Next up, on lanes 21&22, 6th-place Frickin' Ten Pin will spend some quality time with 8th-place Doll's Balls (hcp 46). Ten Pin might maintain their current strength as they and split the series with Doll's Balls; while Doll's Balls ought to hold steady as they keep the series tied.
- Finally, on lanes 23&24, 9th-place T.B.D. (hcp 32) will hang out with 7th-place Churn and Burn. T.B.D. is predicted to maintain their current strength as they lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Churn and Burn is anticipated to hold steady as they enjoy their victories.
