As I was very busy running the side action most of the Monday Summer Doubles season, and away for Lions Club meetings on the other Monday nights, I hardly had any time to keep track of award scores, much less do write-ups. So I’ll just write a bulk post of all of them for the season in chronological order, with only 300 games and 800 series (first three of four games) considered:

• July 5, Ray Fischer, 300 2nd game
• July 19, AJ Voisine, 283-266-278=827 series (1st career 800 series)
• July 26, Joe Bourhill, 300-288-237=817 series
• Aug. 2, Sean Richard, 300 3rd game

Congrats and great bowling everyone! 🎳🔥

One of my Pepsi league bowlers, Steve Charlot, accounted well for himself the other night in the Rhythm & Bowling league, with a 279 game (see high scores). Well done! 🎳😁

They say, “It ain’t how you start, it’s how you finish,” and Tyrell Thompson ended his TNBA league season on a good note Friday night with a 279 game (see high scores). Nice game! 🎳👍

Although there were no big series on the Patriots league’s last position night of the season, there were four good games, led by a 288 thrown by Roland Sandefur, followed also by Aaron Major (279), Jason Sherwood (277), and Sean Richard (270) (see high scores). Nice bowling, everyone! 🎳🙂

With the Patriots league season winding down, Aaron Major and Keith Kaestner had consistently good games last week in the Patriots league, with the former going 269-245-245 for a 759 (recap, Lane 51), and Kaestner bowling 264-236-257 for a 757 (recap, Lane 33). In addition, fine games were turned in by Shane Litchfield (279), Mike Trent Jr. (279), and Stan Lewis (278) last week (see high scores).

Nice bowling everyone! 🎳🔥

I relax the standards for the Pepsi league a little because of the lane conditions, of course, which allows me to write up this game from this other night, Dennis Johnson’s 266 (see high scores). WTG Dennis! 🎳👍

It’s been a matter of public record that Hakim Emmanuel had at least three 300 games (all in the same series, of course) before shooting his first 299, but he picked one of the latter up last week in the His & Hers league. Good bowling, sir! 🎳👍

Here’s a nod to Paris Cook for a 279 game Friday night in the TNBA league, per the week’s high scores. Good bowling! 🎳😎

As noted by the guys at Strike F/X Pro Shop, Ethan Rosenberg put together games of 289, 279, and 233 for an 801 series last Thursday night in the Patriots league (see recap, Lane 49), his first 800 series. Congrats Ethan! 🎳🔥

Also notable that night were Joe Bourhill’s 278-253-257 for a 788 set (recap linked above, Lane 52) and Jim Ferguson’s 288-247-220 for a 755 (also on recap, Lane 50). Nice bowling! 🎳👍

More on the 300 game mentioned above later. 😉

April in the Rhythm & Bowling league ended on a strong note for Lewis Bennett, as he rolled a 297 game, and Tom “T-Bone” Roberson had a good 277 game of his own. Nice bowling, guys! 🎳🙂

Last week’s Patriots league scores were headlined by a 290-226-269 effort by Jon “Hoss” Hester (see recap, Lane 38), and also featured a 279 game from Ray Fischer and a 270 from Cam Kaestner (see high scores). Great bowling! 🎳😊

Going the opposite of the usual and recognizing my league secretary first, with the trey last week, which his wife captured not just the last strike, but the three strikes in the 10th, on video and sent my way. As the only thing he wasn’t on yet was Instagram, I decided to put him there first:

Congrats buddy! 🎳😁👍

Nobody had a good set a week ago in the Rhythm & Bowling league, however, for four of their games, they did their best Patriots league impression: Chris Zalewski led the charge with a 288, John O’Donnell posted a 280, Mo Wideman a 277, and Kris Higgins, not least, a 276 (see high scores). Good job guys! 🎳😎

Mike Trent Jr. had the biggest night of last week in the Patriots league, going 256-228-278 for 762 (see recap, Lane 38), and Jim Ferguson (as usual), also checked in with a 279 game (see high scores). Nice bowling! 🎳🙂

And a member of the first half winners, Last Empire, Sammy Wong, posted a 278 game last week in my league. WTG! 🎳👍

Here’s a shout-out to Anthony Green for a 277 last week (Apr. 11) in the Rhythm & Bowling league (see high scores). WTG! 🎳👍

Recapping last week in the Patriots league, Jim Ferguson had the biggest night, going 225-279-247 for a 751 (recap, Lane 47), with Stan Lewis also checking in with a 279 and Shane Litchfield a 278 (per the high scores). Good bowling, guys! 🎳😁

He can comment on Facebook about how he got to the score, if he wishes, since it’s an unusual one, but Junji Zhang posted a 274 game the other night in the Pepsi league, which he suggested was also his personal high (see high scores). Good bowling! 🎳🙂

Backlogged due to posting lag: Kris Higgins had a 278 game on Easter Sunday (Apr. 4) in the Rhythm & Bowling league (see high scores). Good shooting, man! 🎳😎

There was a relative paucity of scoring in the Patriots league last week, but both Paris Cook and Tom “T-Bone” Roberson flirted with perfect games, both leaving one on the deck with the last shot. Also, Aaron Major had one of his more usual good games with a 279 (see high scores). Good bowling guys! 🎳😎

“Mr. 900” hasn’t disappeared from Westgate, just bowling different leagues, and Hakim checked in with a 278 last night in one of his leagues, the His & Hers Doubles. Good bowling! 🎳🙂

And a score worth noting because of the lane condiition: Ed Roberts had 238-228-234 Monday night in the Pepsi league for 700 on the button (recap, Lane 54; Note: This was actually bowled on 59-60 per the league’s social distancing rules). Nice bowling! 🎳🔥

This is likely his first one at Westgate: Curtis “Don’t Call Me Air” Jordan had a 300 last week in the Rhythm & Bowling league. WTG! 🎳🎉

There was plenty to go with last week in the Patriots league, starting with “Ka$h” posting 278-245-268 for a 791 (see recap, Lane 45) and Jon Hester bowling 279-257-217 for a 753 (same recap, Lane 46; Note: Match actually took place on 53-54 due to breakdown). Keith Kaestner provided the other big highlight of the league’s week, with a 289 game (see high scores), with Mike Major and Stan Lewis also having 279 games, and Mike Trent Jr. a 276.

Nice bowling, all around! 🎳😎

Sometimes, a good night in one league sets you up for a big night in another, and that may have been the case for Ray Fischer last week, as, prior to his 300 game in the Pepsi league, he put up 225-266-213 for a 704 set (see recap, Lane 54on the Broadway pattern, which is lane condition for the last quarter of that league’s season. Great night, Ray! 🎳😎

My league wasn’t going to wait for me last week, and I missed a 289 game by one of the “usual suspects”, Chris Zalewski, as a result (see high scores). Good bowling! 🎳😎
