As for the men, Tim Segraves snagged this week's high game with a 246, and high series was earned by Carl Goetz with a 644.

Countering this, Jason Caton oversaw Yo Mama with his 422 despite his team notching only a single win. Bora Bora remains in 3rd place, while Yo Mama sinks 1 spot to 7th.
On lanes 23 & 24: Tatonka kept grabbing the balls of I'm Gonna Belt Ya, Sucka!. Despite the strength of Andy McLeod with his above-average 474 series, Tatonka got swept by the Belt. On the other side, #1 Power Ranked and #1 Head-to-Head Rich DeYoung mastered the Belt with his staggering 629 as they swept the competition. Tatonka remains in 8th place, while the Belt remains in 1st.
On lanes 25 & 26: Guttersluts kept stealing sips of beer from Bowl Movement. Reinforced by Travis Kleiner with his amazing 469 series, Guttersluts celebrated a clean sweep over Bowl Movement. Meanwhile, Carl Goetz laid down the law in Bowl Movement with his above-average 644 despite his team getting swept. Guttersluts leap 1 spot in the standings to 6th place, while Bowl Movement remains in 2nd.
Finally, down on lanes 27 & 28: Split Happens matched wits with Sweeter Than Yoohoo. Even though highlighted by the skills of James Long with his 547 series, Split Happens accomplished only 1 win against Yoohoo. While that was going down, Tim Segraves took the lead in Yoohoo with his 534 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Split Happens remains in 5th place, while Yoohoo remains in 4th.

Congratulations to our division champions! The following eight people will compete next week for the big prize!
NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 21&22, 1st-place I'm Gonna Belt Ya, Sucka! (hcp 740) will meet with 2nd-place Bowl Movement. The Belt is expected to have the bottom drop out of their averages as they get swept; while Bowl Movement is forecast to hold steady as they rack up a sweep.
- Moving to lanes 23&24, 3rd-place Bora Bora will face 4th-place Sweeter Than Yoohoo. Bora Bora might have their averages plummet, but split the series with Yoohoo; while Yoohoo ought to see their team average take a dive while they keep the series tied.
- Then, over on lanes 25&26, 5th-place Split Happens (hcp 447) will roll against 6th-place Guttersluts. Split Happens will likely see a pretty significant "market correction" to their averages as they get swept; while Guttersluts will probably hold steady as they rack up a sweep.
- Finally, on lanes 27&28, 7th-place Yo Mama will share a couple of pitchers with 8th-place Tatonka. Yo Mama is predicted to see their averages fall off a cliff, but split the series with Tatonka; while Tatonka is anticipated to see their team average take a dive while they keep the series tied.
