The eleventh week of Spring 2006 saw one team climb in the standings, while one team slipped. One bowler set a new personal best series. Freda Schroeder picked up this week's high game (170) and series (477) for the women, while Pat Searcy earned this week's high game (257) and series (696) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 21 & 22: Sweeter Than Yoohoo entered a showdown to the death with Tatonka. Notwithstanding the leadership of Tim Segraves with his above-average 581 series, Yoohoo accomplished only 1 win against Tatonka. Countering this, Andy McLeod took the lead in Tatonka with his marvelous 541 (with kudos to Most Valuable Bowler Will Jeter) as his team took the series with 3 wins. Sweeter Than Yoohoo remains in 5th place, while Tatonka remains in 7th.
On lanes 23 & 24: Yo Mama accepted a challenge by Guttersluts. While headlined by Andy Metzler with his below-average 468 series, Yo Mama accomplished only 1 win against Guttersluts. On the adjacent lane, Aaron Hoyt showed off in Guttersluts with his above-average 404 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Yo Mama remains in 6th place, while Guttersluts remain in 8th.
On lanes 25 & 26: Bowl Movement celebrated their love of large, heavy balls with Bora Bora. Starring David Codding with his above-average 617 series, Bowl Movement collected 3 wins against Bora Bora. On the other half of the score sheet, Freda Schroeder dominated Bora Bora with her above-average 477 despite her team notching only a single win. Bowl Movement remains in 2nd place, while Bora Bora moves 1 spot to 3rd.
Finally, down on lanes 27 & 28: I'm Gonna Belt Ya, Sucka! took turns kicking the ball return with Split Happens. Led by #1 Power Ranked and #1 Head-to-Head Pat Searcy and his astounding 696 series, the Belt celebrated a clean sweep over Split Happens. While that was going down, Ryan Doll commanded Split Happens with his 495 despite his team getting swept. I'm Gonna Belt Ya, Sucka! remains in 1st place, while Split Happens sink 1 spot to 4th.
Bowlers bribing their way into The 200 Club include: Andy McLeod (211), Carl Goetz (245), David Codding (226), Jason Carpio (246), Pat Searcy (213,226,257), Ryan Doll (204), Seth Gunderson (220,211), Steve Kiernan (213), and Tim Segraves (243)

A new personal best series was rolled tonight by Andy McLeod (541, previous best 537). The 257 rolled by Pat Searcy is the new 8th-best game in league history!
The 696 rolled by Pat Searcy is the new 6th-best series in league history!

In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Nobody claimed victory in Division 1, and in fact we aren't even going to talk about Division 1 as it was a complete embarassment, while Seth Gunderson triumphed over his enemies in Division 2. Will Jeter ruled Division 3, and nobody claimed victory in Division 4 (though Ben Lee came closest). And, finally, nobody claimed victory in the Interdivisional bracket, and in fact we aren't even going to talk about this bracket as it was a complete embarassment. In terms of overall points: Pat Searcy and Ken M. Wilson hold the reins in Division 1 in a tie; David Codding and Dennis Laube govern Division 2 in a tie; John Richardson is in the driver's seat in Division 3; and Ryan Doll calls the shots for Division 4.
NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 21&22, 2nd-place Bowl Movement will chill with 1st-place I'm Gonna Belt Ya, Sucka! (hcp 60). Bowl Movement is expected to roll a little low and lose the series but avoid getting swept; while the Belt is forecast to hold steady as they enjoy their victories.
- Moving to lanes 23&24, 3rd-place Bora Bora will socialize with 4th-place Split Happens (hcp 66). Bora Bora might maintain their current strength as they just barely miss sweeping the series; while Split Happens ought to hold steady as they just barely avoid getting swept.
- Then, over on lanes 25&26, 5th-place Sweeter Than Yoohoo will spend some quality time with 6th-place Yo Mama (hcp 116). Yoohoo will likely have a bit of an off night, yet still manage to sweep the series; while Yo Mama will probably drop their average a bit while they endure a rough night.
- Finally, on lanes 27&28, 7th-place Tatonka will test their mettle against 8th-place Guttersluts (hcp 94). Tatonka is predicted to maintain their current strength as they sweep the series; while Guttersluts are anticipated to hold steady as they endure a rough night.
