The thirteenth week of Fall 2005 saw one team climb in the standings, while one team slipped. Freda Schroeder picked up this week's high game (177) and series (502) for the women, while John Richardson earned this week's high game (226) and series (644) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!

First up, on lanes 21 & 22: Tatonka entered a showdown to the death with Harry Potter and the Magic Balls. Headlined by Will Jeter with his 446 series, Tatonka collected 3 wins against Harry Potter. In the meantime, Andy Metzler called the shots for Harry Potter with his above-average 511 despite his team notching only a single win. Tatonka remains in 1st place, while Harry Potter remains in 7th.

On lanes 23 & 24: The Big LeBowlskies shared a few beers with Three Men and a Babe. In spite of the prowess of Dennis Laube with his above-average 559 series, The Big LeBowlskies accomplished only 1 win against Three Men and a Babe. Concurrently, Ken M. Wilson drew the spotlight in Three Men and a Babe with his 562 as his team took the series with 3 wins. The Big LeBowlskies drop 1 spot in the standings to 6th place, while Three Men and a Babe moves 1 spot to 5th.

On lanes 25 & 26: Bora Bora! tussled with Derka, Derka. Featuring trifecta-winner (#1 Head-to-Head, #1 Power-Ranked, and Most Valuable Bowler) John Richardson and his astonishing 644 series, Bora Bora! collected 3 wins against Derka, Derka. Meanwhile, Rich DeYoung ruled Derka, Derka with his 508 despite his team notching only a single win. Bora Bora! remains in 2nd place, while Derka, Derka remains in 4th.

Finally, down on lanes 27 & 28: Munson'd couldn't stop inappropriately groping Same Belt, New Notch. With Munson'd 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, Carl Goetz laid down the law in the Belt with his 556 as they swept the competition. Munson'd remains in 8th place, while the Belt remains in 3rd.

Bowlers rolling into The 200 Club include: Carl Goetz (214), John Richardson (226,226), Ken M. Wilson (214), and Seth Gunderson (221)

In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Nobody claimed victory in Division 1 (though Ken M. Wilson came closest), while Seth Gunderson rolled his ass to the top of Division 2. Tracy Rychlewski trounced Division 3, and John Richardson creamed Division 4. In terms of overall points: Ken M. Wilson leads Division 1; Seth Gunderson dominates Division 2; Phil Schroeder calls the shots for Division 3; and John Richardson tops Division 4.
