After a delay last week due to a massive snowstorm hitting the area, GutterAlley action resumed Tuesday night. Collectively our league is getting hotter as 21 of our thirty-two bowlers raised his or her average on Tuesday night during Week #3. To top it off, six teams swapped places in the league standings as things begin to settle down in the Spring 2014 season. The first matchup of the evening pitted The Finger Holes against Split It & Hit It. With their anchor absent, Split It's Matt Bunyard assumed the high rolling duties and led his team to a Game #1 victory with his 467 series. That's when the F-Holes' Aubrey Moren stepped up in a big way. Leading his team (and the league) with a 651 series, Moren stormed back to secure Games #2 and #3 as well as landing Most Valuable Bowler honors in the process. Total pins, however, went to Split It & Hit It by the slimmest of margins – five pins. With two wins apiece, The Finger Holes slip one spot into 3rd while Split It and Hit It toppled to 7th place.Things just aren't going too well for reigning champs Bowltron these days. After dropping Game #1 by a mere three pins, the downward spiral continued as Pinterest's Ian Goetz put up a 603 series to lead his team to a clean sweep of 'tron. Bill Krejci put up the biggest numbers in the losing effort, ending his night with a 585 series. The victories keep Pinterest atop the league standings via total pins as they enjoy their 9-game win streak. Bowltron, adding no wins to their tally, drops one spot down into 6th place.Down on lanes 45 & 46, UpgrayeDD laced up to do battle with Mark It Zero. Despite output of 637 and 626 from Zero's Ken M. Wilson and Kody Karnes, respectively, the night belonged almost entirely to the men of UpgrayeDD. After a Game #1 loss, GutterAlley's early favorite for Rookie of the Season honors – Josh Robison – delivered the goods in a huge way with his well over average 502 series to stun Mark It Zero en route to a 3-1 matchup victory. The wins give UpgrayeDD the biggest jump in the standings as they advance three spots up into 5th place. Mark It Zero remains in 4th place.On the final pair of lanes, Hall of Famer and resident nice guy Bob Brunker of Schwetty Balls proved to be a thorn in the side of opponents Twerking Balls. Hoisting his career high series – a 647 – Brunker led his team to a clean sweep and extended their win streak to 11 games and putting them on the radar to officially make it onto the Top 25 Longest Win Streaks list next week. Brunker also took home #1 Power Ranked bowler honors with his performance. The wins raise Schwetty up one spot into 2nd while Twerking Balls, led this week by rookie Michael Gordon's 440 series, slip one spot down into 8th place.With the conclusion of the third week, the Tournament of Champions divisions are now officially set with all 32 bowlers spread out across the four 8-person divisions. The tournament will get underway with the scores from Week #4.

FROM THE GUTTER (GUTTER QUOTE) "We didn't want to have to wait." Freda Schroeder, after Ken informed her that he and Scoot could calculate the handicap and outcome of her matchup much faster on an iPad rather than her doing it herself for 15 minutes.
