The Spring 2004 season is now underway, with six teams entering the 12-week competition for the coveted, nonexistent championship trophy. Angela Bradford picked up this week's high game (170) and series (477) for the women, while Pat Searcy earned this week's high game (191) and series (547) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!

First up, on lanes 15 & 16: Joey's B*tches couldn't stop undressing with their eyes the members of Got Carpio?. Led by #1 Head-to-Head David Codding and his 544 series, the B*tches split the series with Got Carpio?. Across the ball return, Eric Lynch oversaw Got Carpio? with his 482 as they matched their opponent in wins. Joey's B*tches begins the season in 2nd place, while Got Carpio? commences the season with 3rd.

On lanes 17 & 18: Recreation Intoxication alternated between bowling and dry humping T.R.O.T.B.. Showcasing #1 Power-Ranked Pat Searcy and his 547 series, Recreation collected 3 wins against T.R.O.T.B.. On the other half of the score sheet, Nik Domann commanded T.R.O.T.B. with his 492 despite his team notching only a single win. Recreation Intoxication leaves the gate in 1st place, while T.R.O.T.B. starts off with 6th.

Finally, down on lanes 19 & 20: The Bowling Stones kept grabbing the balls of 2 Tall Asians, 2 Short Whites.

The Bowling Stones starts out in 5th place, while the White Asians get rolling in 4th.

NEXT WEEK:

• First, on lanes 15&16, 5th-place The Bowling Stones (estimated estimated hcp 101) will test their mettle against 6th-place T.R.O.T.B.. The Stones are expected to maintain their current strength as they get swept; while T.R.O.T.B. is forecast to hold steady as they rack up a sweep.
• Moving to lanes 17&18, 2nd-place Joey's B*tches will chill with 4th-place 2 Tall Asians, 2 Short Whites (estimated hcp 95). The B*tches might perform well and win the series; while the White Asians ought to raise their average even as they avoid getting swept.
• Finally, on lanes 19&20, 3rd-place Got Carpio? (hcp 51) will socialize with 1st-place Recreation Intoxication. Got Carpio? is predicted to roll decently, yet still manage to just barely lose the series; while Recreation is anticipated to raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
