NEXT WEEK:

- Moving to lanes 17&18, 1st-place Anchors Aweigh! will meet with 2nd-place Bowlers of Mass Confusion (hcp 67). The Anchors might maintain their current strength as they lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Mass Confusion ought to raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
- Then, over on lanes 19&20, 8th-place Spare Change will roll against 4th-place Atomic Goo (estimated hcp 66). Spare Change will likely maintain their current strength as they win the series; while Atomic Goo will probably hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
