RENO INVITATIONAL - WEEK #25

Blockheads: 3 - Thick 'N' Sexy: 1

Olivia was out of action again this week but Stephanie was standing by to fill in. I was back after the passing of my Mom last week. I was back physically but I certainly didn't have anything going on the lanes. Luckily, Sharon and Stephanie had it together and they were able to carry us to a 3-1 record for the night. That got us back above .500 with a second half record of 17-15.

RENO INVITATIONAL - WEEK #24

Blockheads: 1 - Who Give A Sh*t: 3

Olivia and I were unavailable this week. Stephanie was able to sub for Olivia and my average was used in my absence. As I wasn't present I don't much to add to the scores. The team was certainly consistent with a high of 744 and a low of 737. Unfortunately, our opponents shot better than that in the first and third games.

RENO INVITATIONAL - WEEK #23

Blockheads: 1 - Bowl Movements: 3

This could have been a big night for us but a couple of things stopped us short. First, I showed up with nothing. I couldn't make anything work from beginning to end. Second, our opponents got hot after the first game and put up two scores that would have been tough for us to beat on any night. Had I not been deep in a funk, we might have pulled out the second game and earned a split. But it happened the way it happened and we won only the first game.

On the positive side, Olivia shot her highest series ever and raised her average two pins. We're still on the right side of .500 with a record of 13-11.

RENO INVITATIONAL - WEEK #22



Blockheads: 3 - Jeff Van Bowling: 1

Sunday's practice session appears to have paid off as we had our strongest night of the season. Our series score of 2147 topped our previous high by 73 and we took 3 of 4 from Jeff Van Bowling. We had a solid shot at a sweep but we tailed off in the third game. Adam (224) and Matt (232) got hot down the stretch and that combination left us 28 pins short.

Despite losing the third game, we had a good night and we improved our second half record to 12-8. We entered the night in a three-way tie for eighth place so I expect we moved up at least a couple of spots in the standings.

We'll have another tough match next week as we take on Bowl Movements. I estimate we will receive about 32 pins in handicap. Perhaps we should have another practice session next weekend.
