We are now halfway through the Spring 2008 season, so time is running out for those teams who want a shot at the championship to position themselves. The eighth week saw three teams climb in the standings, while two teams slipped. One bowler set a new personal best series, and one rolled new personal high game. Freda Schroeder picked up this week's high game (224) and series (535) for the women, while John Coleman earned this week's high game (217) and series (599) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!

In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Bill Krejci dominated Division 1, while John Coleman vanquished Division 2. Kris Hiestand triumphed over his enemies in Division 3, and nobody claimed victory in Division 4 (though John Keck came closest). And, finally, nobody claimed victory in the Interdivisional bracket, and in fact we aren't even going to talk about this bracket as it was a complete embarassment. In terms of overall points: Don Glasscock leads Division 1; Dennis Laube governs Division 2; John Richardson dominates Division 3; and Aubrey Moren runs the show in Division 4.
