Two bowlers set a new personal best series, and one rolled new personal high game. Janelle (Laube) Lamar landed this week's high game for the women with a 172, and women's high series was bagged by Angela Bradford with a 474. As for the men, Ryan Doll snagged this week's high game with a 220, and high series was earned by Ian Goetz with a 600. Read on for all the rest of the details!

In the midst of this, Ryan Doll commanded 3 Pin Moon with his 562 as they swept the competition. No Pinheads drop 1 spot in the standings to 2nd place, while 3 Pin Moon moves 1 spot to 1st.
On lanes 27 & 28: Scoot Gave Us The Schlitz had some one-on-one time with Empire Strikes Back.

Scoot Gave Us The Schlitz remains in 3rd place, while the Empire remains in 4th.
On lanes 29 & 30: The Prak Attack deliberately ate cheese sticks in front of Bowlumpkin. Although blessed by Shane Pfaffly with his above-average 457 series, the Attack accomplished only 1 win against Bowlumpkin. Concurrently, Dave Winger reigned supreme in Bowlumpkin with his above-average 445 as his team took the series with 3 wins.
