Congratulations to Seth and Ashlee Gunderson on the birth this morning of their first child, Spring 2038 women’s high game scratch winner Frankee Belle Gunderson! (Oh also also congratulations to Seth and his team for winning the championship yet again...)

We entered the malfunctioning championship round tonight with every team's ranking set in stone except for the top two teams. Luckily, since Seth was off having a baby, that ended in a way that let us re-use the same championship team photo from last season, with a few minor edits.

First up, on lanes 7 & 8: Vote JV HoF 2016 came in all tied up with W.A.Q.P.T.G.B.T.E!. After a 15+ minute delay due to lane malfunctions, John Boren and his 658 series let the way for Vote JV HoF to secure 3 wins against W.A.Q.P.T.G.B.T.E to secure the championship. Landon Cline's 572 series helped W.A.Q.P.T.G.B.T.E! secure 1 win. Vote JV HoF 2016 remains in 1st place, while W.A.Q.P.T.G.B.T.E! remains in 2nd. This is the 12th championship for Carl, the 9th for Seth, the 7th for John Boren, and the 4th for Jonathan Vigliaturo. John Boren continues his streak of winning the championship every season he bowls. However with Boren and Seth out for the Spring 2017 season, this dynasty is coming to an end and the next championship is up for anybody to grab!

On lanes 9 & 10: Stephen Hawking's Fight Club and O'Dell Lawn Service spent the evening deleting the extra 7 to 10 pins the computer added to every bowler every other frame. Oh, and the also bowled each other. Led by Michael Gordon and his 561 series, Stephen Hawking's Fight Club got swept by O'Dell Lawn Service. Meanwhile, led by Aaron Barber and his 651 series, O'Dell Lawn Service secured a clean sweep. Stephen Hawking's Fight Club remains in 3rd place, while O'Dell Lawn Service remains in 4th.

On lanes 11 & 12 and then 13 & 14: Holy Sandbaggers, Batman! spent all of the first game fixing the free strikes the computer kept giving them and Terra Bowl, before moving over to the empty lanes. Led by Dennis Laube and his 544 series, Holy Sandbaggers, Batman! secured a clean sweep over Terra Bowl. Meanwhile, led by Ben Spencer and his 389 series, Terra Bowl got swept. Holy Sandbaggers, Batman! remains in 5th place, while Terra Bowl remains in 6th.

Finally, down on lanes 13 & 14: Nobody showed up, so at least we had a spare pair of lanes that actually worked.

Please be sure to vote for this season's people's choice awards! Voting is open until 5:00pm on Monday.

The Tournament of Champions championship rounded ended with Scott Murdock taking the top prize and Sean Miller coming in second. Congratulations, you both get extra money next week!

FROM THE GUTTER (GUTTER QUOTE) "So let me get this straight, Freda gets $20 automatically just because she has boobs?" Michael Gordon, on the fact that as the only female Freda could have rolled gutters all season and still win Women's High Series Scratch.
