Week #7 Results

Now were gettin' somewhere! Olivia was out of action again but Sharon, The Coach, and I were in fine form with series of 540, 533, and 627 respectively. It was a four game sweep that moved us from third place to a first place tie with Dr. Nashmoyki at 18-10.

Week #6 Results

We got back on the winning track, going 3-1 for the night with a couple of really close games. We pulled ourselves back up to third place at 14-10. Olivia couldn't be there tonight. Sharon hit her high game of the season with a 217 in the third game while the Coach and I shot respectable scores in the 170s. That was enough to win the rubber game of the match and to claim the total pinfall point.

Week #5 Results

Ouch! That was our worst performance of the season by far. Sharon was in Sacramento for the Columbus Day Holiday. I wish I had been, too. Olivia and the Coach might have been able to pull out a game or two. As it was, we were swept and dropped from second place to fifth with a record of 11-9. That's the worst I've bowled since I was a kid. Just awful. I dropped ten pins off my average in one night! I had some problems with my thumb swelling and I wasn't able to find the right taping in the thumb holes of each ball. Everything I tried just made it worse. I'm going out for some extra practice sessions before next Monday. I stunk. Sorry, teammates.
