Warning: Division by zero in /home/gutter/public_html/modules/inc_mvbGuttercomboPAST.php on line 100
By now every team has bowled each other once, so next week is the Fall 2004 position round. But enough about next week, you came here to read about this week. The seventh week saw one team climb in the standings, while four teams slipped. One bowler roll a new personal best game. Angela Bradford picked up this week's high game (163) and series (466) for the women, while James Long earned this week's high game (239) and series (598) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 19 & 20: Recreation Intoxication celebrated their love of large, heavy balls with Real Ultimate Ninja Bowlers. Highlighting the skills of Pat Searcy with his above-average 597 series, Recreation collected 3 wins against the Ninjas. Concurrently, Dennis Laube dominated the Ninjas with his below-average 447 despite his team notching only a single win. Recreation Intoxication remains in 1st place, while the Ninjas sink 1 spot to 3rd.
On lanes 21 & 22: Die Schlag-Maschinen alternated splits with Bowlkake. Although blessed by Mike Killion with his powerful 403 series, Die Schlag-Maschinen accomplished only 1 win against Bowlkake. As for the opposition, trifecta-winner (#1 Head-to-Head, #1 Power-Ranked, and Most Valuable Bowler) James Long reigned supreme in Bowlkake with his terrific 598 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Die Schlag-Maschinen remains in 7th place, while Bowlkake sinks 1 spot to 5th.
On lanes 23 & 24: Ashley Razabacks couldn't stop inappropriately groping The Belt Strikes Back. With the Razabacks forfeiting, all the Belt needed to do was roll within 40 pins of their combined team average each game. Mission accomplished. In their battle to get within at least 40 pins of average, Nik Domann called the shots for the Belt with his above-average 535 as they swept the competition. Ashley Razabacks remains in 8th place, while the Belt jumps 4 spots to 2nd.
Finally, down on lanes 25 & 26: A Solid No. 2 faced off against Paul Hamms. With top billing by Eric Lynch with his 477 series, No. 2 collected 3 wins against the Hamms. On the other side, Bill Krejci shined in the Hamms with his 542 despite his team notching only a single win. A Solid No. 2 drops 1 spot in the standings to 6th place, while the Hamms sink 1 spot to 4th.
Bowlers slipping into The 200 Club include: Bob Brunker (236), James Long (239), Nik Domann (202), and Pat Searcy (204,201)
A new personal high game was set tonight by Bob Brunker (236, previous best 234).
The 239 rolled by James Long is tied for the 10th-best men's game in league history!
In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Pat Searcy walloped Division 1, while James Long topped Division 2. Mike Killion trounced Division 3, and nobody claimed victory in Division 4 (though Ray Haynes came closest). In terms of overall points: Pat Searcy tops Division 1; Nik Domann reigns over Division 2; Mike Killion runs the show in Division 3; and Ray Haynes holds the reins in Division 4.
NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 19&20, 1st-place Recreation Intoxication will hang out with 2nd-place The Belt Strikes Back (hcp 23). Recreation is expected to perform well and win the series; while the Belt is forecast to raise their average even as they avoid getting swept.
- Moving to lanes 21&22, 3rd-place Real Ultimate Ninja Bowlers (hcp 5) will spend some quality time with 4th-place Paul Hamms. The Ninjas might perform well and win the series; while the Hamms ought to hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
- Then, over on lanes 23&24, 5th-place Bowlkake will match wits with 6th-place A Solid No. 2 (hcp 29). Bowlkake will likely have a bit of an off night and lose the series but avoid getting swept; while No. 2 will probably hold steady as they enjoy their victories.
- Finally, on lanes 25&26, 7th-place Die Schlag-Maschinen will share a couple of pitchers with 8th-place Ashley Razabacks (hcp 374). Die Schlag-Maschinen is predicted to perform well and sweep the series; while the Razabacks are anticipated to see their team average take a dive while they endure a rough night.
