I’ll Be Back?

Posted by Ken April 30, 2013 Spring 2013, Week 14 View Score Sheets

The full results from Week #14 are now in and, mathematically, only two teams can come away as the Spring 2013 champions...and, more than likely, will face one another the last two weeks of the season. Tuesday night will also be remembered as the week with stifling dry heat, no air conditioning, and no tap beer whatsoever. It was also the lowest scoring week of the entire season. Coincidence? We think not. Let's get into the gritty details...On the first pair of lanes, long time rivals – and current league leaders – Will Strike if Provoked faced off against Snakes on a Lane. The Snakes, needing big wins to keep their season alive, enlisted the help of sub John Boren in an effort to turn the tide. Will Strike, led by anchor Aubrey Moren with his 602 series and backed up by this week's Most Valuable Bowler Phil Schroeder, never had a single worry as they swept the Snakes completely off the lanes. With the exception of Boren in Game #3, who led the Snakes with his 571 series, not a single member of the team hit his average at all. Will Strike improves to 38-18 and extend their lead over the league to five games...needing only two more victories to wrap up the season. The Snakes, still in 5th place, shouldn't even bother to show up the rest of the season as they have been absent since before the position round. For fourteen seasons now, Ryan Doll has been chasing his first title. Tuesday night, he kept his Dragon Balls still in contention with a 3-1 matchup victory over opponents Three Strikes and You're Out!. After dropping Game #1 to the Dragons, Three Strikes turned the tides and delivered a beat down in Game #2 compliments of Bob Brunker and his team leading 535 series. Game #3 came down to a 10th frame showdown with Doll pouring on the strikes to finish with a 601 series and a much needed win. The Dragon Balls, still in 2nd at 33-23, face league leaders Will Strike if Provoked next week in what could be either a coronation for Will Strike or setting the stage for an exciting Finals battle. Three Strikes remains in 3rd place at 31-25.Deplete of beer, Ballz Out showed up Tuesday night to roll their games in the hopes that they could outdo the post-bowling Murder, He Wrote. Leading the team with a 530 series, Cliff Barendsen nearly put up his career high game in Game #3 but came away with a 233 and assuming that they would at least win that one. When Murder, He Wrote post-bowled on Wednesday night, the results made for a laugh. Ballz Out won Games #1 and #2 by the slimmest of margins (including a 1-pin victory in the second one) but lost Game #3 to a team effort by Murder, led by Seth Gunderson and his 442 series. Total pins also went to Murder, who remains in 4th while Ballz Out will finish their season in 8th place regardless of the outcome of the final two weeks.Down on lanes 47 & 48, Brunk Enough to Dowl faced off against opponents Split It and Hit It as both teams strive to improve to winning records. With this week's #1 Power Ranked bowler – and rookie sensation – Kody Karnes hoisting a 658 series, Game #1 went to Brunk Enough. Game #2 saw Split It's Dennis Blake rise to the challenge to lead his team with a 528 series to even the series at a game apiece. Game #3 came down to the 10th frame with Brunk Enough pulling off the victory as well as total pins to win the matchup 3-1. Improving to 26-30, Brunk Enough remains in 6th while Split It – currently at 23.5-32.5, remains in 7th place.Bowlers agreeing to smuggle in their own beer next week in The 200 Club this week include: Aubrey Moren (213, 216), Bob Brunker (210), Cliff Barendsen (233), John Boren (227), Kody Karnes (246, 217), and Ryan Doll (213). With only one more week to qualify in the top two spots for this season's Tournament of Champions, it's time for people just on the cusp of being in the top two seed spots to make their move. Division #1 continues to be led by Carl Goetz (20) with Aubrey Moren (19) still on his tail. Dennis Blake (25) is still the top dog in Division #2 but Kody Karnes (17) managed to break the tie he was in for the #2 seed. Division #3 is still the Phil Schroeder (26) show but Jonathan Vigliaturo (17) has moved up to tie Freda Schroeder (17) for the second spot. Division #4 is still up for grabs but is still led by Michael Smith (22) and Mark DeVoe (18).See you next Tuesday!

  FROM THE GUTTER (GUTTER QUOTE)
"I'm subbing on a team tonight with the 2nd, 3rd, and 10th best bowlers of all time. What could go wrong?"

John Boren, wondering why he even bothered to show after Snakes on a Lanes were eliminated from contention.
