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 deliberately ate cheese sticks in front of Big Pin Pin.

On the flipside, Mitch Wheeler shined in 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 sparred with The Incredibowls.

On the other half of the score sheet, #1 Head-to-Head and Most Valuable Bowler Freda Schroeder took the lead in The Incredibowls with her marvelous 488 as her team took the series with 3 wins.

- Moving to lanes 21&22, 4th-place Sub Parre (hcp 40) will throw some gutter balls 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 challenge 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 match wits 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.
