Sub Parre leaps 1 spot in the standings to 3rd place, while Pin Pin sinks 1 spot to 7th.
On lanes 23 & 24: 4 Play waged a heated competition against Bowlingstar Galactica.

In the meantime, Jason Carpio took the lead in the Galactica with his fantastic 569 despite his team getting swept. 4 Play leaps 1 spot in the standings to 1st place, while the Galactica sinks 1 spot to 8th.
Finally, down on lanes 25 & 26: All Belt, No Buckle couldn't stop inappropriately groping Nellielocks and the 3 Spares. With the strength of Nik Domann with his above-average 546 series, the Belt collected 3 wins against Nellielocks. On the other side, Dennis Laube laid down the law in Nellielocks with his 506 despite his team notching only a single win. All Belt, No Buckle drops 1 spot in the standings to 2nd place, while Nellielocks remain in 5th.

NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 19&20, 5th-place Nellielocks and the 3 Spares will challenge 8th-place Bowlingstar Galactica (hcp 11). Nellielocks are expected to perform well and sweep the series; while the Galactica is forecast to hold steady as they endure a rough night.
- Moving to lanes 21&22, 2nd-place All Belt, No Buckle will meet with 1st-place 4 Play (hcp 36). The Belt might perform well and win the series; while 4 Play ought to hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
- Then, over on lanes 23&24, 4th-place Handicrappers (hcp 4) will roll against 3rd-place Sub Parre. Handicrappers will likely roll decently, yet still manage to lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Sub Parre will probably raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
- Finally, on lanes 25&26, 6th-place The Incredibowls will battle 7th-place Big Pin Pin (hcp 39). The Incredibowls are predicted to perform well and win the series; while Pin Pin is anticipated to raise their average even as they avoid getting swept.
