Tracey Robertson picked up this week's high game (152) and series (380) for the women, while Ken M. Wilson earned this week's high game (210) and series (574) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 17 & 18: Team 6 traded lane malfunctions with Top Guns. Topped by Jim Jones with his above-average 488 series, Team 6 celebrated a clean sweep over Top Guns. As for the opposition, Pat Searcy ruled Top Guns with his below-average 507 despite his team getting swept. Team 6 remains in 4th place, while Top Guns sink 1 spot to 2nd.
On lanes 19 & 20: Pop Gunns alternated between bowling and dry humping UnaBowlers. While headlined by Ken M. Wilson with his above-average 574 series, Pop Gunns got swept by the UnaBowlers. Countering this, trifecta-winner (#1 Head-to-Head, #1 Power-Ranked, and Most Valuable Bowler) Jason Carpio shined in the UnaBowlers with his dramatic 501 as they swept the competition. Pop Gunns drop 1 spot in the standings to 3rd place, while the UnaBowlers remain in 5th.
Finally, down on lanes 21 & 22: GRRR had some one-on-one time with Team 5. Even though highlighted by the skills of Scott Murdock with his below-average 329 series, GRRR got swept by Team 5. While that was going down, David Codding laid down the law in Team 5 with his 480 as they swept the competition. GRRR remains in 6th place, while Team 5 jumps 2 spots to 1st.

NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 17&18, 1st-place Team 5 (hcp 400) will meet with 5th-place UnaBowlers. Team 5 is expected to have the bottom drop out of their averages as they get swept; while the UnaBowlers are forecast to hold steady as they rack up a sweep.
- Moving to lanes 19&20, 6th-place GRRR will hang out with 4th-place Team 6. GRRR might see a pretty significant "market correction" to their averages, but split the series with Team 6; while Team 6 ought to see their team average take a dive while they keep the series tied.
