Posted by Ken September 27, 2011 Fall 2011, Week 5 View Score Sheets

As the league puts Week #5 to rest, five teams shuffled spots in the league standings with three moving up and two dropping down. While the team at the top of the heap holds onto their spot for a second straight week, the teams in second through sixth place played musical chairs with a mere three games separating them all from one another. The big surprise on the lanes came from the team that moved up two spots behind an outstanding performance from a man earning his first MVB and #1 Power Ranking nod on the same night. Read on to get the full story...In the first matchup of the night, the Gutterballs looked to get back to their winning ways even though schedules didn't allow the team to bowl together. With two bowlers taking care of their games over lunch – including a team-leading 434 series from Jonathan Vigliaturo – the Gutterballs managed to secure a 3-1 matchup victory over opponents Das Sauer Popes. The Popes' Mike Berlin put up a 408 series to lead his teammates, putting up his best score of the night during Game #2, to earn them their lone win of the night. The Sauer Popes remain in 7th while the Gutterballs' three notches in the W column push them up one spot into 3rd plea.Down a pair on Lanes 21 & 22, Kitten Mittons' very own Ryan Simonet wanted to remind opponents Skirtz & Jerkz what it was like to be swept, and did so emphatically. Earning both his first Most Valuable Bowler award as well as coming in as this week's #1 Power Ranked bowler, Simonet's 460 series – along with anchor Nick Allegri's 462 series – crushed the Skirtz & Jerkz in a clean sweep. Despite a valiant effort from anchor Jennifer Seefeldt, who led the team with a 500 series, the team could simply not stop Simonet and crew. Adding their four games into their record, Kitten Mittons jumps two spots up into 4th while the Skirtz jerk down three spots into 5th place. After falling victim to last week's MVB and #1 Power Ranked bowler and feeling the sting that the Skirtz & Jerkz felt this week, STFU Donny got back into the swing of things to stay in the hunt for another title. Led by anchor Ken M. Wilson's 648 series, STFU Donny earned a 3-1 matchup victory over the Mysterious Platypus Appendages. Game #3 belong entirely to the Appendages as Teresa Deterding led the team with her 468 series to earn the team their lone win. Donny inched up one spot into 2nd while the Platypi remain in 8th place.The final battle of the night pitted league leaders No Pinheads against Vier Reiter Der Apokalypse. With newly promoted anchor Aubrey Moren settling into his new role, the Pinheads earned a big 3-1 win served up by Moren's 561 series. The wins keep the Pinheads in first place by a margin of four games. The Apokalypse, who featured sub Greg Middleton coming back into the league for the first time since the Spring 2010 season, was led by Rob Kaszuba and his 504 series. The wins went back and forth between the teams until the Pinheads break the see-saw and took total pins. Vier Reiter's slip one spot in the standings and find themselves in 6th place.Bowlers lamenting the lack of Octoberfest at the bar in the The 200 Club this week include: Aubrey Moren (219, 202), Carl Goetz (213), Ian Goetz (210) and Ken M. Wilson (255, 202).With the nomination process ending in the next few weeks, please take a moment to check out the eligible bowlers and nominate as many as you'd like as the next enshrinee into the GutterAlley Hall of Fame. Thank you!See you next Tuesday!
