On lanes 19 & 20: When Push Comes To Shove took turns kicking the ball return with Spanked. Topped by #1 Head-to-Head David Codding and his above-average 594 series, the Shovers collected 3 wins against Spanked.

The Good Sons drop 1 spot in the standings to 6th place, while D-Day remains in 2nd.
Finally, down on lanes 23 & 24: Canned Crabs kept grabbing the balls of Hulk Smash!. Blessed by Eric Lynch with his 496 series, the Crabs celebrated a clean sweep over the Hulk. Countering this, Carl Goetz took the lead in the Hulk with his 555 despite his team getting swept. Canned Crabs leap 3 spots in the standings to 5th place, while the Hulk sinks 1 spot to 7th.

In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Carl Goetz routed Division 1, while Jim Jones conquered Division 2. Justin Strelow triumphed over his enemies in Division 3, and nobody claimed victory in Division 4, and in fact we aren't even going to talk about Division 4 as it was a complete embarassment. Congratulations to our division champions! The following eight people will compete next week for the big prize!

NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 17&18, 1st-place Bowlers of Mass Destruction will challenge 2nd-place D-Day (hcp 2). Mass Destruction is expected to perform well and win the series; while D-Day is forecast to raise their average even as they avoid getting swept.
- Moving to lanes 19&20, 3rd-place Top Guns will chuck some balls with 4th-place When Push Comes To Shove (hcp 4). Top Guns might perform well and sweep the series; while the Shovers ought to hold steady as they endure a rough night.
- Then, over on lanes 21&22, 5th-place Canned Crabs (hcp 2) will socialize with 6th-place The Good Sons. The Crabs will likely have a bit of an off night, but split the series with the Sons; while the Sons will probably drop their average a bit while keep the series tied.
- Finally, on lanes 23&24, 7th-place Hulk Smash! (hcp 52) will meet with 8th-place Spanked. The Hulk is predicted to maintain their current strength as they get swept; while Spanked is anticipated to raise their average while they rack up a sweep.
*(Remember, the predicted results above are based on mathematical extrapolations and can be changed by all sorts of factors. If you don't like how your team's results are predicted, you and your teammates have the power to prove the math wrong!)
