In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Demond Robinson claimed victory in Division 1, while nobody claimed victory in Division 2 (though Ken M. Wilson came closest). Kevin Myers routed Division 3, and nobody claimed victory in Division 4 (though Michelle Tollefson came closest). In terms of overall points: Pat Searcy leads Division 1; Ken M. Wilson calls the shots for Division 2; Steve Robinson dominates Division 3; and Marca Robinson is in the driver's seat in Division 4.
NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 17&18, 1st-place When Push Comes To Shove will face 3rd-place Bowlers of Mass Destruction (hcp 30). The Shovers are expected to maintain their current strength as they lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Mass Destruction is forecast to raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
- Moving to lanes 19&20, 6th-place Spanked (hcp 18) will chill with 4th-place Top Guns. Spanked might maintain their current strength as they lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Top Guns ought to raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
- Then, over on lanes 21&22, 8th-place Canned Crabs (hcp 2) will roll against 5th-place The Good Sons. The Crabs will likely maintain their current strength as they sweep the series; while the Sons will probably hold steady as they endure a rough night.
- Finally, on lanes 23&24, 7th-place Hulk Smash! (hcp 48) will share a couple of pitchers with 2nd-place D-Day. The Hulk is predicted to perform well and just barely win the series; while D-Day is anticipated to hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
