NEXT WEEK: - First, on lanes 25&26, 6th-place No Pinheads will roll against 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 test their mettle against 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 battle 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 meet 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.
