The Fall 2002 season is now underway, with six teams entering the 16-week competition for the coveted, nonexistent championship trophy. Freda Schroeder and Sharon Turner both tied for this week's high game for the women with a 159, and women's high series was bagged by Freda Schroeder with a 429. As for the men, Pat Searcy snagged this week's high game with a 195, and high series was earned by Dennis Laube with a 501. Read on for all the rest of the details!

First up, on lanes 17 & 18: Top Guns traded lane malfunctions with UnaBowlers. With top billing by Pat Searcy with his 488 series, Top Guns split the series with the UnaBowlers. While that was going down, Jarrod Guthrie ruled the UnaBowlers with his 449 (with kudos to Most Valuable Bowler Jason Carpio) as they matched their opponent in wins. Top Guns begins with 3rd place, while the UnaBowlers commence the season with 4th.

On lanes 19 & 20: Pop Gunns couldn't stop undressing with their eyes the members of GRRR. Starring #1 Power Ranked and #1 Head-to-Head Dennis Laube and his 501 series, Pop Gunns collected 3 wins against GRRR. Concurrently, Byron Hester shined in GRRR with his 471 despite his team notching only a single win. Pop Gunns leaves the gate in 1st place, while GRRR begins in 5th.

Finally, down on lanes 21 & 22: Team 5 shared a few beers with Team 6. Reinforced by David Parre with his 481 series, Team 5 collected 3 wins against Team 6. On the flipside, Jim Jones commanded Team 6 with his 439 despite his team notching only a single win. Team 5 starts out in 2nd place, while Team 6 starts off with 6th.

NEXT WEEK:

• First, on lanes 17&18, 2nd-place Team 5 will spend some quality time with 5th-place GRRR. Team 5 is expected to tank their averages considerably, but split the series with GRRR; while GRRR is forecast to see their team average take a dive while they keep the series tied.
• Moving to lanes 19&20, 3rd-place Top Guns will throw some gutter balls with 6th-place Team 6. Top Guns might watch their averages take a plunge, but split the series with Team 6; while Team 6 ought to see their team average take a dive while they keep the series tied.
• Finally, on lanes 21&22, 4th-place UnaBowlers will tussle with 1st-place Pop Gunns. The UnaBowlers are predicted to have their averages plummet, but split the series with Pop Gunns; while Pop Gunns are anticipated to see their team average take a dive while they keep the series tied.
