According to this Patriot Ledger article, the company that operates Boston Bowl in Dorchester has acquired the Hanover Bowladrome, and are renaming it Boston Bowl Hanover. Renovations will be completed by next fall, and the company is considering converting half of the center’s 24 candlepin lanes to tenpin. If these are to be USBC-certified lanes, this could mean that Boston Bowl Hanover will be the newest bowling center in the Brockton USBC Bowling Association.
Errata: In calculating the possibility of “The Mustangs” taking 3.5 points to tie “The Badgers” for first place, I failed to account for the half-point given to “The Badgers” in that scenario. If that happens, that would give “The Badgers” 42.5 points, and, thus, maintain the lead over “The Mustangs.” Any hope for “The Mustangs” winning the first-half title, therefore, lies in a sweep of “The Badgers.” Hey, I’m human!
