The Mighty Mosques

Posted by Ken November 2, 2010 Fall 2010, Week 11 View Score Sheets

Week 11 is now in the books and with it comes what appears to be very little change. As has been the case many times this season, not a single team has swapped places in the league standings. However, the distance between teams has narrowed quite a bit in some places and made vast improvements in others. The first place team now enjoys its largest lead to date this season while a game and a half separates 2nd and 3rd place. With a mere five weeks until the Finals, it's anyone's guess as to which team will gain the most ground before the big day.The last time that Ground Zero Mosque found themselves up against No Pinheads, the then-league leaders beat the Mosque members like a red headed step-child. This time, however? It was an entirely different story. Led by Jason Carpio and his 471 series, Ground Zero pulled off a 3-1 upset over the Pinheads and move within a game and a half of overtaking them in the league standings. This marks the second week in a row in which Ground Zero has gained ground against the two teams ahead of them. The Pinheads, who received their highest output compliments of Dennis "Pops" Laube and his 474 series, remain in second place nonetheless. One team that has been quietly racking up victory after victory is Bowl Movement. Entering this week on an 8-game win streak, Movement added two more for a total of ten games won in a row before being surprised by Feed the Monkey in Game #3. Led by Chris Able's 442 series, the Monkeys were able to stop Bowl Movement's win streak with a seven pin victory. Jessica Thomas of the Movement provided the most fire-power in their 3-1 matchup victory, ending her night with an impressive 505 series – the women's highest scratch series so far this season. Bowl Movement remains in 5th place but inches up to be a half a game back from fourth. The Monkeys remain in their 7th place cage.The league is already in agreement that the members of the Pin Pricks live up to their name. To add even more validity to this claim, the Pricks showed absolutely no mercy whatsoever against the league's lone blind team. Putting up the 2nd highest team series in league history in Game #3 – missing the all-time mark by 18 pins – the team took a 4-0 win over themselves, extending their lead out in first place to 4.5 games. David Codding led the team with a 658 series.The bowlers of Drink and Hurl have been all over the league standings this season. Reaching as high as 3rd place at one time, the team has been the lone team that has broken the "no teams are moving" curse over the past month. Facing the team two spots – and two games – ahead of them in the standings seemed like the most opportune time to turn on the heat. Well, that was until they ran into Kitten Mittons' anchor Nick Allegri and this week's Most Valuable Bowler Alison Radke. With Allegri's team-leading 470 series, coupled with Radke's well-above average performance, the Mittons held onto their 4th place spot by adding a 2.5-1.5 matchup victory to their tally. The Hurlers' Aaron Chandler put up his personal best series all season – a 462 – and it helped turn the tide for the night after losing Games #1 and #2. The teams tied total pins. Bowlers ducking into The 200 Club this week include a bunch of Pricks: Carl Goetz (209, 212), David Codding (224, 228, 206), Ian Goetz (212, 232) and Ken M. Wilson (215).
