Giving this post a generic title b/c I have no cute title for this one…
I had my worst night in some time, and I kind of sensed it in my warm-up session before the lanes were turned on for league, the second game of which I failed to have a strike. Most of the night’s problems came in the first game, where I seemed to have one lane going, but couldn’t get out of my own way on the other lane, getting only 1 spare and 4 opens. I did seem to get progressively better as my head cleared (I didn’t get much sleep the night before), and I had my only run of strikes near the end of the last game, getting a turkey. Also on the bright side, I did make all of my single pins, and improving on my single-pin spares was something I wanted to work on this summer.
Result: 143-164-189=496
Average (12 games): 185 Last 9 games average: 182
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 561
The team again got a split, but this time via the “hard way,” losing the first 2 games, then taking the last game by enough to also take total. Bonnie was a big part of the last game, as she tossed the last 5 at a point where we needed to get over the threshold for total. Rob also had a great night for him.
