The fifth week of Fall 2007 saw two teams climb in the standings, while three teams slipped. Two bowlers set a new personal best series, and one rolled new personal high game. Jennifer Seefeldt picked up this week's high game (176) and series (494) for the women, while Cory Chorpenning earned this week's high game (279) and series (676) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 19 & 20: Dios Mios matched wits with The GameCox. Led by #1 Head-to-Head Bill Krejci and his above-average 627 series, Dios Mios collected 3 wins against the GameCox. On the other side, Jason Carpio took the lead in the GameCox with his above-average 526 despite his team notching only a single win. Dios Mios remains in 3rd place, while the GameCox sinks 1 spot to 6th.
On lanes 21 & 22: Ebowla spent a romantic evening with Seriously Handicapped. Demonstrating the prowess of Travis Kleiner with his above-average 429 series, Ebowla collected 3 wins against the Handicapped. Countering this, Tyler Hilker shined in the Handicapped with his (either injured, sick, or sandbagging) 397 despite his team notching only a single win. Ebowla leaps 2 spots in the standings to 7th place, while the Handicapped remains in 10th.
On lanes 23 & 24: Split Happens tussled with Bad Newz Kennels. Though featuring Nick Allegri with his below-average 460 series, Split Happens accomplished only 1 win against the Kennels. In the meantime, Carl Goetz mastered the Kennels with his 566 (with kudos to Most Valuable Bowler Phil Schroeder) as his team took the series with 3 wins. Split Happens drop 1 spot in the standings to 8th place, while the Kennels remain in 2nd.
On lanes 25 & 26: Cannonbelt Run had some one-on-one time with Seefeldt the Glasscock. Notwithstanding the leadership of Seth Gunderson with his above-average 541 series, Cannonbelt accomplished only 1 win against the Glasscock. As for the opposition, Don Glasscock laid down the law in the Glasscock with his 668 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Cannonbelt Run remains in 4th place, while the Glasscock remains in 1st.
Finally, down on lanes 27 & 28: Sh!t, I Don't Know shared a few beers with Your Mom. With the strength of #1 Power-Ranked Cory Chorpenning and his breathtaking 676 series, I Don't Know collected 3 wins against Your Mom. Concurrently, Ryan Doll showed off in Your Mom with his 550 despite his team notching only a single win. Sh!t, I Don't Know leaps 1 spot in the standings to 5th place, while Your Mom sinks 1 spot to 9th.
Bowlers who lied to their significant other claiming bowling was running long then went out for after-bowling drinks at The 200 Club include: Bill Krejci (228,212), Carl Goetz (224), Cory Chorpenning (279,207), Dennis Laube (200), Don Glasscock (265,210), Duncan Ferber (201,247), Jason Carpio (205), Ken M.

Adding to the excitement, the 279 rolled by Cory Chorpenning is this season's new high game for men.
The 279 rolled by Cory Chorpenning is tied for the 2nd-best game in league history!
In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Steve Kiernan routed Division 1, while nobody claimed victory in Division 2 (though Nik Domann came closest). Seth Gunderson creamed Division 3, and nobody claimed victory in Division 4 (though John Kroenke came closest). Finally, Jason Carpio (Division 2) had his way with this week's Interdivisional bracket. In terms of overall points: Steve Kiernan and Duncan Ferber run the show in Division 1 in a tie; Nik Domann tops Division 2; Jennifer Seefeldt and Seth Gunderson hold the reins in Division 3 in a tie; and Travis Kleiner is in the driver's seat in Division 4.
NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 19&20, 5th-place Sh!t, I Don't Know will chill with 8th-place Split Happens (hcp 102). I Don't Know is expected to maintain their current strength as they win the series; while Split Happens are forecast to hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
- Moving to lanes 21&22, 4th-place Cannonbelt Run will tussle with 3rd-place Dios Mios (hcp 12). Cannonbelt might maintain their current strength as they win the series; while Dios Mios ought to hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
- Then, over on lanes 23&24, 6th-place The GameCox will challenge 10th-place Seriously Handicapped (hcp 71). The GameCox will likely maintain their current strength as they sweep the series; while the Handicapped will probably hold steady as they endure a rough night.
- Next up, on lanes 25&26, 7th-place Ebowla (hcp 37) will match wits with 9th-place Your Mom. Ebowla might perform well and sweep the series; while Your Mom ought to hold steady as they endure a rough night.
- Finally, on lanes 27&28, 1st-place Seefeldt the Glasscock will spend some quality time with 2nd-place Bad Newz Kennels (hcp 71). The Glasscock is predicted to roll a little low and lose the series but avoid getting swept; while the Kennels are anticipated to raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
