The fifteenth week of Spring 2006 saw one team climb in the standings, while one team slipped. One bowler set a new personal best series, and three rolled new personal high games. Freda Schroeder picked up this week's high game (181) and series (472) for the women. As for the men, Tim Segraves snagged this week's high game with a 246, and high series was earned by Carl Goetz with a 644. Meanwhile, Tournament of Champions is officially down to its final eight bowlers, who will face each other next week competing for two cash prizes! Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 21 & 22: Bora Bora celebrated their love of large, heavy balls with Yo Mama. Highlighting the skills of Dennis Laube with his above-average 528 series, with kudos to Most Valuable Bowler Phil Schroeder, Bora Bora collected 3 wins against Yo Mama. In the midst of this, Jason Caton guided Yo Mama with his 422 despite his team notching only a single win. Bora Bora remains in 3rd place, while Yo Mama sinks 1 spot to 7th.
On lanes 23 & 24: Tatonka entered a showdown to the death with I'm Gonna Belt Ya, Sucka!. While headlined by Andy McLeod with his above-average 474 series, Tatonka got swept by the Belt. In the meantime, #1 Power Ranked and #1 Head-to-Head Rich DeYoung mastered the Belt with his dramatic 629 as they swept the competition. Tatonka remains in 8th place, while the Belt remains in 1st.
On lanes 25 & 26: Guttersluts alternated between bowling and dry humping Bowl Movement. Led by Travis Kleiner with his astonishing 469 series, Guttersluts celebrated a clean sweep over Bowl Movement. Countering this, Carl Goetz laid down the law in Bowl Movement with his above-average 644 despite his team getting swept. Guttersluts leap 1 spot in the standings to 6th place, while Bowl Movement remains in 2nd.
Finally, down on lanes 27 & 28: Split Happens chucked gutter balls with Sweeter Than Yoohoo. Regardless of the star power of James Long with his 547 series, Split Happens accomplished only 1 win against Yoohoo. Meanwhile, Tim Segraves dominated Yoohoo with his 534 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Split Happens remains in 5th place, while Yoohoo remains in 4th.

Congratulations to our division champions! The following eight people will compete next week for the big prize!
NEXT WEEK: - First, on lanes 21&22, 1st-place I'm Gonna Belt Ya, Sucka! (hcp 740) will roll against 2nd-place Bowl Movement. The Belt is expected to perform weakly as they get swept; while Bowl Movement is forecast to hold steady as they rack up a sweep.
- Moving to lanes 23&24, 3rd-place Bora Bora will meet with 4th-place Sweeter Than Yoohoo. Bora Bora might have the bottom drop out of their averages, but split the series with Yoohoo; while Yoohoo ought to see their team average take a dive while they keep the series tied.
- Then, over on lanes 25&26, 5th-place Split Happens (hcp 447) will match wits with 6th-place Guttersluts. Split Happens will likely drop their averages like a brick as they get swept; while Guttersluts will probably hold steady as they rack up a sweep.
- Finally, on lanes 27&28, 7th-place Yo Mama will hang out with 8th-place Tatonka. Yo Mama is predicted to have their averages plummet, but split the series with Tatonka; while Tatonka is anticipated to see their team average take a dive while they keep the series tied.
*(Remember, the predicted results above are based on mathematical extrapolations and can be changed by all sorts of factors. If you don't like how your team's results are predicted, you and your teammates have the power to prove the math wrong!)
