The Help

Posted by Ken November 5, 2013 Fall 2013, Week 12 View Score Sheets

Now with less than four weeks until the Finals, the season that seemed to be almost wrapped up by a single team a little while back has been drastically rewritten. A mere four and a half games now separate the top half of the league standings setting the stage for an interesting November. Week #12's action was definitely owned by the help this week, as teammates stepped up to collectively aid their team on the pathway to victory. Now let's get into the recap...If there was ever a team to be feared this second half of the season, it's Bewbie Dance. Despite a roller coaster start to their season, this band of cagey veterans has weathered the storm and is currently on its way to overtaking the top spot in the league standings. Against this week's victims Gutterfingers, the Bewbs took a 3-1 matchup victory led by Hall of Famer Angela Bradford and her 551 series. The wins keep the team in 2nd place but now sit just a single game out of first. Anita Osthoff led the Fingers with a 511 series in the losing effort and remain in 7th place.In what could possibly have been the longest recorded matchup in league history, Will Strike if Provoked ended up taking cursed team Breaking Bad 3-1 on lanes 43 & 44. With anchor Aubrey Moren leading the way with his 546 series, Will Strike bounced back after a Game #1 loss to take the remaining games in the contest — including a single pin victory in Game #3. Bad's Kody Karnes led not only the team but the league with his 623 series. Will Strike remains in 4th while Breaking Bad slips a spot into 6th place. Things are not looking good for the men of Bowltron. Three weeks ago, 'tron sat atop the league standings with a solid eight game league over everyone and showed no signs of slowing down. Since then? They have combined for a 2-10 record. Their latest beatdown came at the hands of surging Split It and Hit It, who is enjoying their best season to date. Led by anchor Dennis Blake's 555 series – and aided by this week's Most Valuable Bowler performance out of Matt Bunyard – Split It refused to back down after a Game #1 misfire to end the night with a 3-1 matchup victory. The wins keep Split It in 3rd place but they now sit just four games behind 1st place Bowltron. John Boren led Bowltron with a 585 series.The only team to sweep their opponents – and, subsequently, improve their position in the standings this week – was Ballz Out. Taking aim at opponents Even Brunker Than Defore, the Ballz' anchor Cliff Barendsen and his 560 series put up this week's #1 Power Ranked bowler performance to propel his team up a notch into 5th place. Brunker's Eric Lynch provided the most fire power for his gang with a 460 but it simply wasn't enough to turn the tide, despite two games being very close. Even Brunker Than Defore remains in 8th place.The Tournament of Champions rolls on:Division 1 = Ryan Doll (23), Ken M. Wilson (18)Division 2 = Angela Bradford (26), Dennis Blake/Jonathan Vigliaturo (15)Division 3 = Freda Schroeder (24), Bryan Mohr (15)Division 4 = Chadwick Andrews (22), Michael Smith (18)This week's rollers spied at The 200 Club include: Angela Bradford (203), Aubrey Moren (227), Bill Krejci (203), Dennis Blake (203), John Boren (214, 209), Ken M. Wilson (202), Kody Karnes (232), and Ryan Doll (203).The Hall of Fame ballot is open and ready for your vote(s) today! Get in there and make it happen for someone.On a final note, it's a sad day in GutterAlley history as Anastasia "Stasia" Gregory (pictured above, on the right) will be leaving the employ of the bowling alley as she recently received a promotion at her other job and will be focusing on that. Her Tuesday with us was her last. Good luck, Stasia! You'll definitely be missed.See you next Tuesday!
