The Spring 2005 position round is now history, and and the championship will be on us before we know it! The eighth week saw two teams climb in the standings, while two teams slipped. Angela Bradford landed this week's high game for the women with a 176, and women's high series was bagged by Freda Schroeder with a 488. As for the men, Demond Robinson snagged this week's high game with a 204, and high series was earned by Rich DeYoung with a 518. Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 19 & 20: 4 Play shared a few beers with All Belt, No Buckle. In spite of the prowess of Angela Bradford with her 479 series, 4 Play accomplished only 1 win against the Belt. On the adjacent lane, Demond Robinson commanded the Belt with his 505 as his team took the series with 3 wins. 4 Play drops 1 spot in the standings to 2nd place, while the Belt moves 1 spot to 1st.
On lanes 21 & 22: Sub Parre celebrated their love of large, heavy balls with Handicrappers. Though featuring David Parre with his splendid 501 series, Sub Parre accomplished only 1 win against Handicrappers. Countering this, Ashley Razak shined in Handicrappers with her outstanding 429 as her team took the series with 3 wins. Sub Parre drops 1 spot in the standings to 4th place, while Handicrappers move 1 spot to 3rd.
On lanes 23 & 24: Nellielocks and the 3 Spares accepted a challenge by Big Pin Pin. Blessed by Rich DeYoung with his above-average 518 series, Nellielocks collected 3 wins against Pin Pin. Simultaneously, Mitch Wheeler oversaw Pin Pin with his 452 despite his team notching only a single win. Nellielocks and the 3 Spares remains in 5th place, while Pin Pin remains in 6th.
Finally, down on lanes 25 & 26: Bowlingstar Galactica deliberately ate cheese sticks in front of The Incredibowls. Regardless of the star power of Eric Lynch with his below-average 494 series, with a nod to #1 Power-Ranked Aaron Hoyt, the Galactica accomplished only 1 win against The Incredibowls. Meanwhile, #1 Head-to-Head and Most Valuable Bowler Freda Schroeder showed off in The Incredibowls with her wondrous 488 as her team took the series with 3 wins. Bowlingstar Galactica remains in 7th place, while The Incredibowls remain in 8th.

In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Rich DeYoung creamed Division 1, while Michael Basham trounced Division 2. Freda Schroeder clobbered Division 3, and Aaron Hoyt rolled his ass to the top of Division 4. In terms of overall points: Demond Robinson runs the show in Division 1; Michael Basham tops Division 2; Freda Schroeder reigns over Division 3; and Amanda Schulte governs Division 4.
NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 19&20, 3rd-place Handicrappers (hcp 68) will tussle with 8th-place The Incredibowls. Handicrappers are expected to perform well, yet still manage to 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, 4th-place Sub Parre (hcp 40) will chill with 6th-place Big Pin Pin. Sub Parre might perform well and win the series; while Pin Pin ought to hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
- Then, over on lanes 23&24, 2nd-place 4 Play (hcp 13) will meet with 7th-place Bowlingstar Galactica. 4 Play will likely roll decently and sweep the series; while the Galactica will probably drop their average a bit while they endure a rough night.
- Finally, on lanes 25&26, 1st-place All Belt, No Buckle will spend some quality time with 5th-place Nellielocks and the 3 Spares (hcp 9). The Belt is predicted to perform well and just barely miss sweeping the series; while Nellielocks are anticipated to hold steady as they just barely avoid getting swept.
