Mar. 5 league standings update

Getting swept by “The Incredibowls” this week meant that “Babe and Balls” slipped back into the virtual last place, a point behind “Pairs and Spares,” who happen to be next week’s opposition. At the top, “The Incredibowls” now hold a single-point lead over “The 5 G’s.”

Marathon tournament note

The handicap marathon tournament that was scheduled for Sunday at Westgate Lanes has been canceled due to lack of entries. The scratch marathon scheduled for March 20 is still on, and entries for that will be taken right up until the day of the tournament.

Mar. 2 league night recap

My Week 25 bowling, frame-by-frame (Linked to BowlSK series sheet)

I just couldn’t line anything up for the most part tonight, other than the four in a row in the second game. I made my 10 two more times than I missed it, but the three I missed, along with a flagged 2, hurt.

Result: 168-200-173=541
Average (75 games): 185
Average for last 9 games: 179
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 568

I can only explain a sweep by our opponents tonight as them being hot; Brian Snow, especially, was 140+ over his average on the night.

Tuesday notes

Just a couple of random (sort of) notes…

  • The USBC has posted the oil pattern for this year’s USBC Open Championships. I’m linking the pattern not so much because the Open Championships are an event I cover on this blog, but because the Brockton Bowling Association mentions the pattern on their website as a possibility for the Hall of Fame Classic, thus I’m posting it as a service to those bowlers.
  • There will be a cosmic bowling fundraiser on March 26 from 8-10 PM at Westgate Lanes. Proceeds will benefit Gracie’s Mission, which aims to provide “alternative” veterinary treatment, as well as provide assistance in covering veterinary bills to lower income people who need treatment for their pets.
