Here’s a different name to post about this week: Jose Garcia checked in Friday night with a 289 game in the TNBA league (see high scores). Great bowling! 🎳👌

Ed Grossett is probably the best back-up bowler (back-up = right-handed, but ball moves left-to-right) in Massachusetts, and maybe in New England. This will be my first mention of him here (at least for a score) since his first 300 game, which came here at Westgate six years ago at the state tournament, as he turned in a fine 255-253-255 for a 763 set Thursday night in the Patriots league (see recap, Lane 41). Also, Ethan Reyes posted a 279 game last week (see high scores).

WTG guys! 🎳👏

I’m only noting this score now because this league’s standings sheets lag the others in posting: Chris Zalewski started the month of March in the Rhythm & Bowling league with a 275 game (see high scores). WTG! 😎🎳

If you thought Chris Zalewski’s 809 series last Wednesday night was something, the Patriots league wasn’t going to be outdone, as Aaron Major had 300-268-239 for an 807 of his own (Lane 47). While this wasn’t a bigger set than Zalewski’s, it was the scoring by the other bowlers that was the outdoing, as Brian Egan and Jon Hester both threw 300 games in the first game as teammates (see recap on Lane 50), with only Mark Zimmerman’s 224 preventing it from being a team award game (by a pin). All of this made Jim Ferguson’s 278/762 night look paltry by comparison (recap linked on Lane 47 above; see Lane 40).

Great night guys! 🎳😎👏

800 series have historically (at least in my time in the league) been elusive. The other night, however, Chris Zalewski, the gentleman in the photo above, posted 256-278-275 for an 809 set, the recap at the end of the night which is shown below (indirect thanks to Chris’ mother, Tina):

Congrats and great bowling! 🎳🔥👏😎

A different name to post about this week in the Pepsi league: Steve Miller put up a 277 game Monday night, per the high scores. WTG! 🎳😎

The Rhythm & Bowling league ended February with Rene Thompson posting a 279 game, Curtis Jordan a 277, and John O’Donnell a 270 (see high scores). WTG guys! 🎳👍

Recapping a big Patriots league night last week, Keith Kaestner had the biggest game of all, with a 299 (see high scores, but Joe Bourhill the biggest night, going 257-237-287 for a 781 (see recap, Lane 33). Wrapping it up, Hall of Famers Sean Richard and Jim Ferguson also had a 279 each as teammates in the first game (see recap, Lane 47). Nice bowling guys! 🎳👏

Always happy when I can write this guy up: My league’s secretary, Shawn Coles, posted a 279 last week. Nice game, sir! 🎳😎

Chris Zalewski had another good game last Friday in the TNBA league, with a 278. WTG! 🎳👍

Two of these names will be familiar, but one not so much: Congrats to Brian Egan, who ran the back 11 in the first game, and followed by games of 260 and 232 for a 782 set last week in the Patriots league (see recap, Lane 46). Danny Khuu also went 251-247-258 for a 756 (recap, Lane 34), and Omar Butcher threw a 277 game (see week’s high scores).

Nice bowling guys! 🎳🔥👌

By Kevin Thibeault’s recent standards, he had an off night last night in the Pepsi league, “only” putting up a 263 high game in a 716 series (reporting threshold adjusted for the lane condition). It was his teammate, Dan Esdale, giving him margin for error, however, with a 267 high game in a 728 set of his own (check the recap, Lane 59). Nice bowling, guys! 🎳👍

Devon McGregor came close to one Friday night, with a 299 in the TNBA league, per the week’s high scores. Nice game, D-Mac! 🎳🔥👏

He’d been taking time away from bowling for his college studies, but, on Thursday night, Shane Litchfield returned to the Westgate fray in a big way with a 277 game in the Patriots league (see week’s high scores). Welcome back! 🎳😎

This was late coming in: Ricky Chan posted a 275 last week in my league, per the weekly high scores. WTG! 🎳😎

Team SEER might as well keep Kevin Thibeault in their lineup for the rest of this Pepsi league quarter, it seems, as he’s shot over 750 in two of the three weeks on Beaten Path so far. This week, he only went 248-258-246 for a 752, per the recap (Lane 52). Nice bowling, Kev! 🎳👍

There weren’t really many good series last week in the Patriots league, so the only highlights were single games, Danny Khuu’s 289 and Mike Trent Jr. with a 279 (see high scores). Good bowling! 🎳🙂

January ended with Chris Zalewski posting a 277 game in the Rhythm & Bowling league, per the high scores from Jan. 31 (Note: The league doesn’t usually upload results until later in the week.). WTG! 🎳👌

The scoring in the Patriots league last week shifted to a team bowling on the other end of the league, as Joe Bourhill put up a 279 game in a 773 set, and Kevin Thibeault, bowling as Joe’s teammate, had a 279 game himself (check the recap, Lane 35). Along with those, Brian Egan and Mike Mayo each also had 278 games (see week’s high scores).

Good bowling guys! 🎳😎

Last Sunday (Jan. 24) in the Rhythm & Bowling league saw John O’Donnell post a nice 278 game (see week’s high scores). WTG! 🎳👌

Aside from the 300 and pair of 800s previously reported, Sean Richard had a 776 set (see recap, Lane 43; coincidentally, the 800s are also on this page, Lane 48), and Danny Khuu a 279 game (see weekly high scores). Nice bowling guys! 🎳🙂

Many bowlers need a game or two, or even a full night to get comfortable on a new lane condition. On the first night of the third quarter of the Pepsi league, on Kegel Beaten Path, all Kevin Thibeault did last night, however, was go 269-245-259 for a 773 set, a monster by that league’s standards (see recap, Lane 60). WTG Kev! 🎳🔥

Several bowlers were worthy of mention for performances last Thursday in the Patriots league, and I’ll start with the bowlers with notable series, first:

• Ray Fischer, 258-225-279; 762 (Recap, Lane 43)
• Aaron Major, 239-279-238; 756 (Recap, Lane 32)
• Brendan Litchfield, 279 (High Scores)
• Paris Cook, 279 (High Scores, linked above)

Nice bowling all around! 🎳😎

I still like to congratulate bowlers for 11 in a row, and that was the case last night, as Brendan Litchfield had (apparently) the back 11 for a 290 in the His & Hers league last night (see the weekly high scores). Great bowling! 🎳🔥

There were a couple of notable scores last Thursday in the Patriots league: Aaron Major, with 258-233-289 for a 780 set (see recap, Lane 49), and Brian Egan, with a 278 game (see weekly high scores). Good bowling, you two! 🎳👍
