The sixth week of Spring 2006 saw two teams climb in the standings, while two teams slipped. Two bowler roll a new personal best game. Freda Schroeder picked up this week's high game (178) and series (493) for the women, while Carl Goetz earned this week's high game (245) and series (608) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 21 & 22: Yo Mama accepted a challenge by Tatonka. Demonstrating the prowess of Andy Metzler with his 509 series, Yo Mama collected 3 wins against Tatonka. While that was going down, Will Jeter reigned supreme in Tatonka with his above-average 486 despite his team notching only a single win. Yo Mama leaps 1 spot in the standings to 5th place, while Tatonka remains in 7th.
On lanes 23 & 24: Bora Bora faced off against I'm Gonna Belt Ya, Sucka!. Featuring Dennis Laube with his 530 series, Bora Bora split the series with the Belt. Countering this, Jason Carpio oversaw the Belt with his above-average 602 as they matched their opponent in wins. Bora Bora drops 1 spot in the standings to 6th place, while the Belt remains in 1st.
On lanes 25 & 26: Split Happens couldn't stop inappropriately groping Bowl Movement. Highlighting the skills of #1 Power Ranked and #1 Head-to-Head Ryan Doll and his thrilling 589 series, Split Happens split the series with Bowl Movement. Meanwhile, Carl Goetz mastered Bowl Movement with his 608 as they matched their opponent in wins. Split Happens leap 1 spot in the standings to 2nd place, while Bowl Movement remains in 4th.
Finally, down on lanes 27 & 28: Guttersluts waged a heated competition against Sweeter Than Yoohoo. With top billing by Aaron Hoyt with his powerful 408 series, with kudos to Most Valuable Bowler Erin deVries, Guttersluts collected 3 wins against Yoohoo. Conversely, Tim Segraves ruled Yoohoo with his terrific 599 despite his team notching only a single win. Guttersluts remains in 8th place, while Yoohoo sinks 1 spot to 3rd.
Bowlers entering The 200 Club include: Carl Goetz (245), David Codding (201), Jason Carpio (235), Pat Searcy (203), Ryan Doll (203,204), Steve Kiernan (212), and Tim Segraves (234)

In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Pat Searcy won Division 1, while Dennis Laube clobbered Division 2. Scott Murdock vanquished Division 3, and Ryan Doll mopped up Division 4. And, finally, nobody claimed victory in the Interdivisional bracket (though Steve Kiernan and Freda Schroeder (Division ) came closest). In terms of overall points: Michael Basham and Pat Searcy are both in the driver's seat (on each other's laps?) in Division 1 in a tie; David Codding runs the show in Division 2; Tim Segraves holds the reins in Division 3; and Ryan Doll tops Division 4.
NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 21&22, 2nd-place Split Happens (hcp 108) will socialize with 3rd-place Sweeter Than Yoohoo. Split Happens are expected to maintain their current strength as they lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Yoohoo is forecast to hold steady as they enjoy their victories.
- Moving to lanes 23&24, 8th-place Guttersluts (hcp 317) will hang out with 4th-place Bowl Movement. Guttersluts might perform well, yet still manage to lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Bowl Movement ought to drop their average a bit even as they enjoy their victories.
- Then, over on lanes 25&26, 6th-place Bora Bora will throw some gutter balls with 5th-place Yo Mama (hcp 68). Bora Bora will likely maintain their current strength as they win the series; while Yo Mama will probably raise their average even as they avoid getting swept.
- Finally, on lanes 27&28, 7th-place Tatonka (hcp 160) will chill with 1st-place I'm Gonna Belt Ya, Sucka!. Tatonka is predicted to maintain their current strength as they lose the series but avoid getting swept; while the Belt is anticipated to drop their average a bit even as they enjoy their victories.
