The tweltfh week of Spring 2010 saw two teams climb in the standings, while two teams slipped. One bowler set a new personal best series, and one rolled new personal high game. Angela Bradford picked up this week's high game (201) and series (582) for the women, while Carl Goetz earned this week's high game (251) and series (708) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 25 & 26: Empire Strikes Back alternated splits with Bowlumpkin. With top billing by #1 Power Ranked and #1 Head-to-Head Carl Goetz and his stunning 708 series, the Empire collected 3 wins against Bowlumpkin. In the meantime, AJ Taylor showed off in Bowlumpkin with his above-average 447 despite his team notching only a single win. Empire Strikes Back leaps 1 spot in the standings to 1st place, while Bowlumpkin plunges 2 spots to 7th.
On lanes 27 & 28: The Prak Attack kept stealing sips of beer from Scoot Gave Us The Schlitz. Headlined by Shane Pfaffly with his spectacular 491 series, the Attack celebrated a clean sweep over the Schlitz. On the flipside, Angela Bradford guided the Schlitz with her terrific 582 despite her team getting swept. The Prak Attack leaps 2 spots in the standings to 5th place, while the Schlitz sinks 1 spot to 2nd.
On lanes 29 & 30: Lil' Devils chucked gutter balls with 3 Pin Moon. Despite being led by Andrea Caudillo with her above-average 460 series, Lil' Devils accomplished only 1 win against 3 Pin Moon. On the adjacent lane, Ryan Doll mastered 3 Pin Moon with his 568 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Lil' Devils remains in 4th place, while 3 Pin Moon remains in 3rd.
Finally, down on lanes 31 & 32: No Pinheads hung out with Little Lebowski Urban Achievers. Featuring Aubrey Moren with his remarkable 594 series, the Pinheads split the series with the Urban Achievers. Simultaneously, Mitch Kempker ruled the Urban Achievers with his 562 (with kudos to Most Valuable Bowler Greg Shelton) as they matched their opponent in wins. No Pinheads remains in 6th place, while the Urban Achievers remain in 8th.
Bowlers rolling into The 200 Club include: Angela Bradford (201,201), Aubrey Moren (206,204), Carl Goetz (251,246,211), Ken M. Wilson (203), and Mitch Kempker (215)


A new
personal high game was set tonight by
Sarah Sauer (180, previous best 175). In addition, a new
personal best series was rolled by Aubrey Moren (594, previous best 585).
Adding to the excitement, the 708 rolled by Carl Goetz is this season's new high series for men.
The 582 rolled by Angela Bradford is the new 5th-best women's series in league history!
The 708 rolled by Carl Goetz is tied for the 7th-best series in league history!
In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Carl Goetz ruled Division 1, while Angela Bradford got the better of Division 2. Nobody claimed victory in Division 3 (though Andrea Caudillo came closest), and Lawrence Prak creamed Division 4.
In terms of overall points: Ken M. Wilson reigns over Division 1; Angela Bradford and Brett Schroeder are both in the driver's seat (on each other's laps?) in Division 2 in a tie; Janelle (Laube) Lamar governs Division 3; and Lawrence Prak runs the show in Division 4.
NEXT WEEK: - First, on lanes 25&26, 6th-place No Pinheads will challenge 5th-place The Prak Attack (hcp 137). The Pinheads are expected to maintain their current strength as they win the series; while the Attack is forecast to hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
- Moving to lanes 27&28, 7th-place Bowlumpkin (hcp 107) will battle 3rd-place 3 Pin Moon. Bowlumpkin might maintain their current strength as they get swept; while 3 Pin Moon ought to hold steady as they rack up a sweep.
- Then, over on lanes 29&30, 2nd-place Scoot Gave Us The Schlitz will throw some gutter balls with 8th-place Little Lebowski Urban Achievers (hcp 114). The Schlitz will likely maintain their current strength as they sweep the series; while the Urban Achievers will probably raise their average even as they endure a rough night.
- Finally, on lanes 31&32, 4th-place Lil' Devils (hcp 158) will chuck some balls with 1st-place Empire Strikes Back. Lil' Devils are predicted to maintain their current strength as they get swept; while the Empire is anticipated to hold steady as they rack up a sweep.
