NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 19&20, 9th-place Chicks With Balls (hcp 49) will tussle with 5th-place BILFs. The Chicks are expected to perform well, yet still manage to lose the series but avoid getting swept; while BILFs are forecast to raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
- Moving to lanes 21&22, 10th-place Split Happens (hcp 94) will roll against 3rd-place Quick Release. Split Happens might perform well, yet still manage to lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Quick Release ought to hold steady as they enjoy their victories.
- Then, over on lanes 23&24, 2nd-place No Pinheads will spend some quality time with 8th-place Ebowla (hcp 102). No Pinheads will likely maintain their current strength as they sweep the series; while Ebowla will probably hold steady as they endure a rough night.
- Next up, on lanes 25&26, 7th-place BOWLSH!T (hcp 181) will face 1st-place Sweep The Leg, Johnny. BOWLSH!T might perform well, yet still manage to just barely miss getting swept; while Sweep The Leg ought to hold steady as they enjoy their victories.
- Finally, on lanes 27&28, 6th-place Rollin' J's (hcp 52) will test their mettle against 4th-place WWJB. Rollin' J's are predicted to maintain their current strength as they get swept; while WWJB is anticipated to hold steady as they rack up a sweep.
