WEEK 6 RESULTS



Won 3, Lost 1



We had our second match with Ifrancene VanderHopper (Team 3) and this one was just as tight as the last. Both teams muddled through the first game and we came out on top by a small margin. We did better in the second game but it wasn't enough. Our opponents took it up to a higher level and buried us by 81 pins. Yet again, we split the first two games and found ourselves in a spot where we needed not only a win, but a win by a large margin to avoid losing the point for total pinfall.

Team 3 turned it up to 10
so we needed a bit more

In the final game, Peter & Co. turned it up again but this time there was no stopping us. We turned it up to 11 with a 794 to claim the rubber game of the match and edge them by a mere eight pins in total pinfall. Irene and Frances bowled their high series for the season, with Frances's 600+ series being tops for the women in our league. Team 3's scores would have been enough to earn a sweep or at least win 3 out of 4 on most nights. However, on this night we bowled our high game and high series of the season. It's a good thing we did because we needed every bit of it to get past them.

We entered the night in second place with a record of 14-10, half a point behind Don't Matter (Team 7). By winning three of four, we bumped our record up to 17-11 which may have been good enough to push our way back into first place. Don't Matter was paired up with Team 6 but I don't know the outcome of their series. We know from our match with Team 6 last week that they can be pretty tough.
