We had another good turnout with 24 bowlers enough to make 6 teams of four. Right from the start the two all-men teams (by random pick) were head to head in competition, with players on both teams casting glances at the other scores. At the end of the first game the team of Ken, John, Garry W., and Shane were neck and neck with the team of Dan, Gary l., Scott, and Colin with a tied total of 803 each. None of the other teams appeared in contention at this point.
In the second game Dan's team pulled ahead with an 859 to a fading effort of 794 by Ken's team. In the third game Ken's group put on a surge finishing with an 875 and a total of 2472 which left Dan and Company needing at least 811 in the third game to win. So they thought. Down at the end of the alley behind a screen of empty Tiger beer bottles 'H' was leading his team of Ladies to a surprise victory. After posting team totals of 769 in the first, and 808 in the second, 'H' powered the team to victory with a personal best of 280 in the third. He was assisted with a 198 from Jo, 209 from Somsee, and a 226 from Nongruk giving a one game total of 913 and an afternoon total of 2490. This left Dan's team mumbling amongst themselves after beating their apparent rivals by 61 pins in the third but being clipped by 'H' and the Ladies who won with a come from behind victory of two pins.
Congratulations to 'H' the high game winner and Somsee, Jo, and Nongruk for a great win.
See you next week.
