The fourth week of Spring 2007 saw two teams climb in the standings, while three teams slipped. One bowler set a new personal best series, and two rolled new personal high games. Angela Bradford picked up this week's high game (170) and series (456) for the women, while Stefan Miller earned this week's high game (246) and series (682) for the men. Meanwhile, the Tournament of Champions also kicked off tonight, beginning of 13 weeks of one-on-one bowling excitement! Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 15 & 16: King Pins couldn't stop undressing with their eyes the members of Oily Balls.

Wilson dominated Oily Balls with his 593 as his team took the series with 3 wins. King Pins remains in 10th place, while Oily Balls remain in 2nd.
On lanes 17 & 18: Unstoppabowl sparred with Doll's Balls.

Unstoppabowl remains in 3rd place, while Doll's Balls plunge 3 spots to 7th.
On lanes 19 & 20: Those 4 Bowlers shared a platter of cheese sticks with Guttersluts.
