FRIDAY NIGHT TRIOS - WEEK #24

ELM Trio: 0 - Mile High Club: 7
This week we met the Mile High Club on lanes 5-6. They were certainly a mile high after they finished sweeping us. Our second half record slipped to 14-28. If we're going to make a move on first place, we'd best not delay it any longer.

Next week we have the vacant team on the schedule. We have to finish at 490 (45 pins below the sum of our averages) to earn a tie. A score of 491 or higher will earn a win. With the bar set that low, we should be able to attain a sweep. Anything less than a sweep will have to be considered a failure.

FRIDAY NIGHT TRIOS - WEEK #23

ELM Trio: 2 - Honey's Biotches: 5
Honey's Biotches were on the schedule this week and an unusually heavy volume of oil was on the lanes. Heads were shaking throughout the league at the sight of missed headpins, washouts, and light hits. I finally woke up and switched out my Primal Rage for my Raptor Talon after the first game. It made a huge difference. I wish I'd figured out the lane condition sooner.

Honey's Biotches won the first game by 39 pins as we muddled our way through the unfamiliar lane conditions. We picked ourselves up in the second game but so did they and we found ourselves down two games and 51 pins. We pulled out the third game but by only ten pins. The result was a score of 2-5.

We were in 12th place with a record of 12-16 after 22 weeks. Our second half record slipped to 14-21 which will no doubt drop us below 12th place. Next week we will be on lanes 5-6 with Mile High Club.

FRIDAY NIGHT TRIIOS - WEEK #22

ELM Trio: 5 - Elements: 2
We started slowly and lost the first game by a mere three pins. Thankully, we bowled much better in the second and third games. Winning the final two games by margins of 167 and 77 earned us the point for total pinfall and a 5-2 victory in the series.

Our record for the second half improved to 12-16. Next week we'll be on lucky lanes 13-14 to take on Honey's Biotches.

FRIDAY NIGHT TRIOS - WEEK #21

ELM Trio: 0 - Rudy's Hot Mamas: 7
We swung back to the other extreme with our third consecutive series ending in a sweep. Unfortunately, we were on the losing end of the sweep for the second time in three weeks. We never really got rolling and we finished the night without any 200 games or 600 series. Our opponents, Rudy's Hot Mamas, bowled quite well at the same time we were off our game. That's usually a lethal combination.

Our second half record fell to 7-14. Can we sweep our way back to .500 in week #22?
