NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 21&22, 8th-place Munson'd (hcp 12) will chill with 1st-place Tatonka. Munson'd is expected to maintain their current strength as they lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Tatonka is forecast to hold steady as they enjoy their victories.
- Moving to lanes 23&24, 6th-place Three Men and a Babe will face 5th-place Derka, Derka (hcp 35). Three Men and a Babe might maintain their current strength as they sweep the series; while Derka, Derka ought to drop their average a bit while they endure a rough night.
- Then, over on lanes 25&26, 3rd-place Same Belt, New Notch will throw some gutter balls with 7th-place Harry Potter and the Magic Balls (hcp 93). The Belt will likely have a bit of an off night, yet still manage to win the series; while Harry Potter will probably hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
