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 sparred with Tatonka. Demonstrating the prowess of Andy Metzler with his 509 series, Yo Mama collected 3 wins against Tatonka. On the adjacent lane, Will Jeter showed off 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 deliberately ate cheese sticks in front of I'm Gonna Belt Ya, Sucka!. Headlined by Dennis Laube with his 530 series, Bora Bora split the series with the Belt. On the other half of the score sheet, Jason Carpio mastered 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 celebrated their love of large, heavy balls with Bowl Movement. Blessed by #1 Power Ranked and #1 Head-to-Head Ryan Doll and his dazzling 589 series, Split Happens split the series with Bowl Movement. In the midst of this, Carl Goetz took the lead in 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 couldn't stop undressing with their eyes the members of Sweeter Than Yoohoo. Featuring Aaron Hoyt with his breathtaking 408 series, with kudos to Most Valuable Bowler Erin deVries, Guttersluts collected 3 wins against Yoohoo. Meanwhile, Tim Segraves ruled Yoohoo with his fantastic 599 despite his team notching only a single win. Guttersluts remains in 8th place, while Yoohoo sinks 1 spot to 3rd.
Bowlers who lied to their significant other claiming bowling was running long then went out for after-bowling drinks at 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 creamed Division 1, while Dennis Laube cleaned up Division 2. Scott Murdock had his way with Division 3, and Ryan Doll whipped 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 hold the reins in Division 1 in a tie; David Codding is in the driver's seat in Division 2; Tim Segraves tops Division 3; and Ryan Doll leads Division 4.
NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 21&22, 2nd-place Split Happens (hcp 108) will chuck some balls 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 test their mettle against 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 compete against 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 challenge 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.
