The ninth week of Spring 2003 saw two teams climb in the standings, while three teams slipped. Michelle Tollefson landed this week's high game for the women with a 160, and women's high series was bagged by Janelle (Laube) Lamar with a 414. As for the men, Thomas Lin snagged this week's high game with a 240, and high series was earned by Pat Searcy with a 598. Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 17 & 18: Spanked spent some quality time with The Good Sons. Led by #1 Power-Ranked and Most Valuable Bowler Thomas Lin and his powerful 563 series, Spanked collected 3 wins against the Sons. On the other side, Steve Robinson reigned supreme in the Sons with his marvelous 468 despite his team notching only a single win. Spanked remains in 8th place, while the Sons sink 1 spot to 6th.
On lanes 19 & 20: Hulk Smash! shared a platter of cheese sticks with Bowlers of Mass Destruction. Featuring Carl Goetz with his below-average 518 series, the Hulk collected 3 wins against Mass Destruction. Across the ball return, Justin Strelow laid down the law in Mass Destruction with his 452 despite his team notching only a single win. Hulk Smash! leaps 1 spot in the standings to 5th place, while Mass Destruction sinks 1 spot to 2nd.
On lanes 21 & 22: When Push Comes To Shove alternated between bowling and dry humping Canned Crabs. Demonstrating the prowess of David Parre with his 519 series, the Shovers collected 3 wins against the Crabs. Countering this, Eric Lynch drew the spotlight in the Crabs with his below-average 462 despite his team notching only a single win. When Push Comes To Shove remains in 4th place, while the Crabs remain in 7th.
Finally, down on lanes 23 & 24: D-Day couldn't stop inappropriately groping Top Guns. Blessed by #1 Head-to-Head Ken M. Wilson and his above-average 558 series, D-Day celebrated a clean sweep over Top Guns. On the adjacent lane, Pat Searcy shined in Top Guns with his above-average 598 despite his team getting swept. D-Day leaps 2 spots in the standings to 1st place, while Top Guns sink 1 spot to 3rd.
Bowlers who stripped naked and shared a cozy hottub together in a back room at The 200 Club include: Bill Krejci (202), Ken M. Wilson (202), Pat Searcy (235,214), and Thomas Lin (240)
In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Demond Robinson dominated Division 1, while Ken M. Wilson whipped Division 2. Shannon Myers routed Division 3, and Marca Robinson rolled her ass to the top of Division 4. In terms of overall points: Pat Searcy holds the reins in Division 1; Ken M. Wilson calls the shots for Division 2; Shannon Myers leads Division 3; and Marca Robinson runs the show in Division 4.
NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 17&18, 3rd-place Top Guns will test their mettle against 7th-place Canned Crabs (hcp 137). Top Guns are expected to maintain their current strength as they sweep the series; while the Crabs are forecast to hold steady as they endure a rough night.
- Moving to lanes 19&20, 1st-place D-Day (hcp 25) will challenge 4th-place When Push Comes To Shove. D-Day might perform well and win the series; while the Shovers ought to drop their average a bit while they avoid getting swept.
- Then, over on lanes 21&22, 8th-place Spanked will throw some gutter balls with 5th-place Hulk Smash! (hcp 55). Spanked will likely roll decently, yet still manage to lose the series but avoid getting swept; while the Hulk will probably raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
- Finally, on lanes 23&24, 6th-place The Good Sons (hcp 93) will match wits with 2nd-place Bowlers of Mass Destruction. The Sons are predicted to roll a little low and lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Mass Destruction is anticipated to raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
