The tweltfh week of Spring 2007 saw one team climb in the standings, while one team slipped. Angela Bradford picked up this week's high game (172) and series (473) for the women, while Don Glasscock earned this week's high game (238) and series (630) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!

First up, on lanes 15 & 16: X9XX faced off against Oily Balls. While headlined by Don Glasscock with his 630 series, X9XX accomplished only 1 win against Oily Balls. Conversely, Ken M. Wilson oversaw Oily Balls with his 533 as his team took the series with 3 wins. X9XX remains in 4th place, while Oily Balls remain in 2nd.

On lanes 17 & 18: Those 4 Bowlers had some one-on-one time with Churn and Burn. Even though highlighted by the skills of Seth Gunderson with his below-average 470 series, 4 Bowlers accomplished only 1 win against Churn and Burn. Countering this, Jason Carpio called the shots for Churn and Burn with his 506 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Those 4 Bowlers remains in 5th place, while Churn and Burn moves 1 spot to 7th.

On lanes 19 & 20: Doll's Balls tussled with Guttersluts. With the strength of Ryan Doll with his above-average 547 series, Doll's Balls split the series with Guttersluts. In the meantime, John Boren took the lead in Guttersluts with his below-average 537 as they matched their opponent in wins. Doll's Balls remains in 6th place, while Guttersluts remain in 1st.

On lanes 21 & 22: King Pins matched wits with T.B.D.. Notwithstanding the leadership of Duncan Ferber with his above-average 576 series, with kudos to Most Valuable Bowler Daniel Bolton, King Pins managed only 1.5 wins against T.B.D.. Concurrently, Nik Domann drew the spotlight in T.B.D. with his 537 (along with props to #1 Power-Ranked and Most Valuable Bowler Daniel Bolton) as his team took the series with 2.5 wins. King Pins drop 1 spot in the standings to 8th place, while T.B.D. remains in 10th.

Finally, down on lanes 23 & 24: Frickin' Ten Pin spent some quality time with Unstoppabowl. With top billing by Carl Goetz with his 553 series, Ten Pin collected 3 wins against Unstoppabowl. On the other side, Cory Chorpenning reigned supreme in Unstoppabowl with his 564 despite his team notching only a single win. Frickin' Ten Pin remains in 9th place, while Unstoppabowl remains in 3rd.

Bowlers slipping under the velvet rope in front of The 200 Club include: Carl Goetz (208,222), Cory Chorpenning (204,203), Don Glasscock (238), Duncan Ferber (219), Jason Carpio (201), John Boren (218), John Coleman (206), Ken M. Wilson (218), Nik Domann (200), Phil Schroeder (204), and Ryan Doll (200)

In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Ken M. Wilson mopped up Division 1, while Phil Schroeder rolled his ass to the top of Division 2. David Parre creamed Division 3, and nobody claimed victory in Division 4 (though Greg Middleton came closest). And, finally, nobody claimed victory in the Interdivisional bracket, and in fact we aren't even going to talk about this bracket as it was a complete embarassment. In terms of overall points: John Boren tops Division 1; Seth Gunderson reigns over Division 2; Dave Hickerson runs the show in Division 3; and Daniel Bolton dominates Division 4.

NEXT WEEK:

• First, on lanes 15&16, 7th-place Churn and Burn will match wits with 8th-place King Pins (hcp 45). Churn and Burn is expected to roll a little low, but split the series with King Pins; while King Pins are forecast to hold steady as they keep the series tied.
• Moving to lanes 17&18, 1st-place Guttersluts (hcp 56) will tussle with 4th-place X9XX. Guttersluts might roll a little low and get swept; while X9XX ought to hold steady as they rack up a sweep.
• Then, over on lanes 19&20, 3rd-place Unstoppabowl will roll against 5th-place Those 4 Bowlers (hcp 28). Unstoppabowl will likely maintain their current strength as they lose the series but avoid getting swept; while 4 Bowlers will probably hold steady as they enjoy their victories.
• Next up, on lanes 21&22, 2nd-place Oily Balls will battle 9th-place Frickin' Ten Pin (hcp 34). Oily Balls might maintain their current strength as they and split the series with Ten Pin; while Ten Pin ought to hold steady as they keep the series tied.
