- Moving to lanes 23&24, 2nd-place Same Belt, New Notch will compete against 1st-place Tatonka (hcp 128). The Belt might maintain their current strength as they sweep the series; while Tatonka ought to hold steady as they endure a rough night.
- Then, over on lanes 25&26, 4th-place The Big LeBowlskies will battle 8th-place Munson'd (hcp 90). The Big LeBowlskies will likely roll decently and win the series; while Munson'd will probably raise their average even as they avoid getting swept.
- Finally, on lanes 27&28, 5th-place Derka, Derka will match wits with 7th-place Harry Potter and the Magic Balls (hcp 51). Derka, Derka is predicted to maintain their current strength as they just barely miss sweeping the series; while Harry Potter is anticipated to hold steady as they just barely avoid getting swept.
