The third week of Spring 2005 saw three teams climb in the standings, while one team slipped. Angela Bradford picked up this week's high game (191) and series (485) for the women. As for the men, Bill Krejci snagged this week's high game with a 242, and high series was earned by Carl Goetz with a 575. And the Tournament of Champions divisions are now set, ready for one-on-one action to begin next week! Read on for all the rest of the details!

First up, on lanes 19 & 20: Handicrappers celebrated their love of large, heavy balls with Bowlingstar Galactica. Reinforced by Bill Krejci with his above-average 567 series, Handicrappers collected 3 wins against the Galactica. Simultaneously, Jason Carpio guided the Galactica with his above-average 515 despite his team notching only a single win. Handicrappers remains in 6th place, while the Galactica remains in 8th.

On lanes 21 & 22: All Belt, No Buckle sparred with Big Pin Pin. Highlighting the skills of Demond Robinson with his 501 series, the Belt celebrated a clean sweep over Pin Pin. Meanwhile, Mitch Wheeler called the shots for Pin Pin with his (either injured, sick, or sandbagging) 407 despite his team getting swept. All Belt, No Buckle leaps 2 spots in the standings to 2nd place, while Pin Pin plunges 4 spots to 5th.

On lanes 23 & 24: Sub Parre kept grabbing the balls of 4 Play. Notwithstanding the leadership of #1 Power-Ranked and Most Valuable Bowler Andrew Fisher and his remarkable 429 series, Sub Parre accomplished only 1 win against 4 Play. Across the ball return, Bob Brunker commanded 4 Play with his 557 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Sub Parre remains in 7th place, while 4 Play moves 1 spot to 1st.

Finally, down on lanes 25 & 26: Nellielocks and the 3 Spares alternated between bowling and dry humping The Incredibowls. With the strength of Rich DeYoung with his 521 series, Nellielocks split the series with The Incredibowls. Countering this, #1 Head-to-Head Carl Goetz mastered The Incredibowls with his above-average 575 as they matched their opponent in wins. Nellielocks and the 3 Spares remains in 3rd place, while The Incredibowls move 1 spot to 4th.

Bowlers lounging at The 200 Club include: Bill Krejci (242), Carl Goetz (202), and Nik Domann (202)

The Tournament of Champions begins next week. Here are the final division assignments for this season:

• First, on lanes 19&20, 1st-place 4 Play will test their mettle against 4th-place The Incredibowls (hcp 66). 4 Play is expected to maintain their current strength as they lose the series but avoid getting swept; while The Incredibowls are forecast to raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
• Moving to lanes 21&22, 7th-place Sub Parre (hcp 113) will compete against 3rd-place Nellielocks and the 3 Spares. Sub Parre might perform well, yet still manage to lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Nellielocks ought to raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
• Then, over on lanes 23&24, 2nd-place All Belt, No Buckle will face 6th-place Handicrappers (hcp 128). The Belt will likely maintain their current strength as they sweep the series; while Handicrappers will probably hold steady as they endure a rough night.
• Finally, on lanes 25&26, 5th-place Big Pin Pin (hcp 39) will roll against 8th-place Bowlingstar Galactica. Pin Pin is predicted to maintain their current strength as they lose the series but avoid getting swept; while the Galactica is anticipated to hold steady as they enjoy their victories.
