WEEK #23 RESULTS

ELM Trio 7 - OJ's 0

We had the OJ's on the schedule this week but Ofelia was absent so we faced only the J's. The sweep we suffered at the hands of the Hot Mamas last week dropped our record from 16-12 to 16-19 and dumped us from fifth place to twelfth in the standings. A team with designs on first place can't afford too many nights like that. Fortunately, Eli wasn't the only one bowling well for us this week and we earned a sweep of our own. Sorry about that OJ's.

We improved our record to 23-19 which should move us back up at least a couple of places in the standings. We won't know for certain until we obtain the league's stat sheet next week.

WEEK #22 RESULTS

Hot Mamas 7 - ELM Trio 0

The Hot Mamas were indeed hot but only Eli was up to the task of keeping up with them. As a result, we were victims of a 7-point sweep. Linda was absent but Peggy and Kat were outstanding with series 52 and 99 points above their respective averages. Combine their scores with the 102 pins per game in handicap we were spotting them and we couldn't afford to have two of us off our games on the same night. It was a shame to waste Eli's excellent series.

WEEK #19 - #21 RESULTS

I haven't been keeping up with the blog very well for the last month. Mostly it was because I was ill. My health has returned but lately I've just been bowling nearly every night. I'll try to keep up the rest of the way.

A stretch of five consecutive sweeps propelled us to the league's top record for the first half of the season. A sixth consecutive sweep in the first week of the second half (week #19) gave us an early lead. However, our string of consecutive sweeps was snapped in week #20 as we managed only one win over Team 15. Our record for the night was 2-5. In week #21, we also managed only one win against Team 12 but we pulled out the point for total pinfall to make it a 3-4 night.
