Posted by BowlingBot March 10, 2009 Spring 2009, Week 8 View Score Sheets

Spring 2009 Week 8 Robo-RecapWe are now halfway through the Spring 2009 season, so time is running out for those teams who want a shot at the championship to position themselves. The eighth week saw three teams climb in the standings, while three teams slipped. One bowler set a new personal best series, and two rolled new personal high games. Angela Bradford picked up this week's high game (202) and series (528) for the women, while Zach Frank earned this week's high game (213) and series (593) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!

First up, on lanes 19 & 20: Chico's Bail Bonds entered a showdown to the death with Capt. Awesome & Wonder Friends. Topped by David Codding with his 557 series, Chico's missed a clean sweep over Wonder Friends by just one pin.Meanwhile, Amanda Zahnweh shined in Wonder Friends with her dramatic 406 as her team missed getting swept by just one pin. Chico's Bail Bonds leap 2 spots in the standings to 2nd place, while Wonder Friends remain in 8th.

week8On lanes 21 & 22: WWJB alternated splits with No Pinheads. Featuring Most Valuable Bowler Rich Foster and his awe-inspiring 417 series, WWJB collected 3 wins against No Pinheads. Countering this, Aubrey Moren drew the spotlight in No Pinheads with his 519 despite his team notching only a single win. WWJB leaps 1 spot in the standings to 9th place, while No Pinheads plunge 2 spots to 4th.

On lanes 23 & 24: Turkey Sandwich matched wits with XXX. Headlined by #1 Power Ranked and #1 Head-to-Head Zach Frank and his spectacular 593 series, Turkey Sandwich collected 3 wins against XXX. Conversely, Rich DeYoung took the lead in XXX with his above-average 517 despite his team notching only a single win. Turkey Sandwich remains in 7th place, while XXX sinks 1 spot to 10th.

On lanes 25 & 26: Sh!t, Another Season accepted a challenge by Chicks With Balls. Highlighting the skills of Duncan Ferber with his above-average 567 series, Another Season collected 3 wins against the Chicks. On the other side, Janelle (Laube) Lamar oversaw the Chicks with her 413 despite her team notching only a single win. Sh!t, Another Season leaps 1 spot in the standings to 5th place, while the Chicks sink 1 spot to 6th.

Finally, down on lanes 27 & 28: Rule 6B faced off against Schlitz For Us, Splits For You. Showcasing Adam Messner with his amazing 539 series, Rule 6B split the series with Schlitz. Across the ball return, Angela Bradford dominated Schlitz with her above-average 528 as they matched their opponent in wins. Rule 6B remains in 3rd place, while Schlitz remains in 1st.

Bowlers slipping into The 200 Club include: Angela Bradford (202), Cory Chorpenning (204), David Codding (202), Duncan Ferber (201), and Zach Frank (213,203)


New personal high games were set tonight by Adam Messner (195, previous best 189) and Emily Podhajsky (148, previous best 133). In addition, a new personal best series was rolled by Adam Messner (539, previous best 488).


In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Duncan Ferber mopped up Division 1, while Rich DeYoung spanked Division 2. Adam Messner rolled his ass to the top of Division 3, and Zach Frank crushed Division 4. And, finally, nobody claimed victory in the Interdivisional bracket, and in fact we aren't even going to talk about this bracket as it was a complete embarassment. In terms of overall points: Carl Goetz reigns over Division 1; Rich DeYoung and Phil Schroeder lead Division 2 in a tie; Chris Lewis governs Division 3; and Zach Frank tops Division 4.

NEXT WEEK:
  • First, on lanes 19&20, 9th-place WWJB (hcp 28) will socialize with 10th-place XXX. WWJB is expected to perform well, yet still manage to lose the series but avoid getting swept; while XXX is forecast to raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
  • Moving to lanes 21&22, 5th-place Sh!t, Another Season will chill with 1st-place Schlitz For Us, Splits For You (hcp 61). Another Season might roll a little low and lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Schlitz ought to raise their average while they enjoy their victories.
  • Then, over on lanes 23&24, 8th-place Capt. Awesome & Wonder Friends (hcp 10) will match wits with 6th-place Chicks With Balls. Wonder Friends will likely roll decently and win the series; while the Chicks will probably raise their average even as they avoid getting swept.
  • Next up, on lanes 25&26, 4th-place No Pinheads will chuck some balls with 3rd-place Rule 6B (hcp 53). No Pinheads might maintain their current strength as they win the series; while Rule 6B ought to hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
  • Finally, on lanes 27&28, 2nd-place Chico's Bail Bonds will roll against 7th-place Turkey Sandwich (hcp 118). Chico's are predicted to perform well and sweep the series; while Turkey Sandwich is anticipated to hold steady as they endure a rough night.
