The Spring 2005 season draws to a close, with All Belt, No Buckle officially earning this season's championship title! The final week saw one team climb in the standings, while one team slipped. Freda Schroeder picked up this week's high game (201) and series (530) for the women, while Carl Goetz earned this week's high game (225) and series (594) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 19 & 20: All Belt, No Buckle had some one-on-one time with 4 Play. In spite of the prowess of Seth Gunderson with his 451 series, the Belt accomplished only 1 win against 4 Play. On the other half of the score sheet, Pat Searcy drew the spotlight in 4 Play with his 536 as his team took the series with 3 wins. All Belt, No Buckle finish in 1st place, while 4 Play come out in 2nd.
On lanes 21 & 22: Sub Parre chucked gutter balls with Nellielocks and the 3 Spares. Headlined by Ken M. Wilson with his 572 series, Sub Parre collected 3 wins against Nellielocks. In the meantime, Rich DeYoung called the shots for Nellielocks with his 520 despite his team notching only a single win. Sub Parre end the season in 3rd place, while Nellielocks cros the finish line in 4th.
On lanes 23 & 24: Handicrappers shared a platter of cheese sticks with The Incredibowls. Notwithstanding the leadership of Paul Linder with his above-average 438 series, Handicrappers got swept by The Incredibowls. While that was going down, Carl Goetz commanded The Incredibowls with his above-average 594 (benefitted greatly by real star — trifecta-winner #1 Power-Ranked, #1 Head-to-Head, and Most Valuable Bowler Freda Schroeder) as they swept the competition. Handicrappers drop 1 spot in the standings to end in 6th place, while The Incredibowls move 1 spot to go home with 5th.
Finally, down on lanes 25 & 26: Bowlingstar Galactica celebrated their love of large, heavy balls with Big Pin Pin. Blessed by Eric Lynch with his below-average 464 series, the Galactica collected 3 wins against Pin Pin. . With Pin Pin forfeiting, all the Galactica needed to do was roll within 40 pins of their combined team average each game. However, that would not be the case. Bowlingstar Galactica complete in 7th place, while Pin Pin end up with 8th.
