NEXT WEEK:

• First, on lanes 15&16, 4th-place Bowlkake2 will chill with 9th-place I Can't Believe It's Not Gutter (hcp 97). Bowlkake2 is expected to maintain their current strength as they win the series; while Not Gutter is forecast to raise their average even as they avoid getting swept.
• Moving to lanes 17&18, 6th-place Manute Bowl (hcp 3) will spend some quality time with 8th-place TBD. Manute Bowl might perform well and win the series; while TBD ought to hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
• Then, over on lanes 19&20, 7th-place Frickin' Ten Pins (hcp 40) will challenge 5th-place All Belts Are Off. Frickin' Ten Pins will likely roll decently, but split the series with the Belt; while the Belt will probably raise their average while they keep the series tied.
• Next up, on lanes 21&22, 3rd-place New Balls, Old Rack will chuck some balls with 2nd-place Split Happens (hcp 65). The Old Rack might maintain their current strength as they sweep the series; while Split Happens ought to hold steady as they endure a rough night.
