WEEK #4 RESULTS

Points Won: 5 - Points Lost: 22

It was another difficult series for Pinole Bowlers Supply as we were defeated in all three games and earned only five individual points for a second consecutive score of 5-22. But let's not get discouraged. There's a long way to go.

WEEK #3 RESULTS

Points Won: 5 - Points Lost 22

Ouch! That didn't exactly go the way we planned it. Garrett started out on fire with an opening game of 269 but it went mostly downhill from there. Pinole Bowlers Supply lost all three games and scored only five individual points. Twenty-two points went to The Four Horseman. (Yes, that's how they spell it and it's a team of three men and one woman. It must be an inside joke.) With the 5-22 score this week, our record for the season fell to 32-49.

STATS FOR WEEK #2 POSTED

Click on the STAT SHEETS tab for an early look at this week's stat sheet. (I get them early when I bowl on Monday nights.) I also scanned a flier for a scratch tournament at Diablo Valley Bowl in November. It's on the TOURNAMENTS page.

I'll see you guys on lane 28 tomorrow.

PRACTICE

Will anyone be doing any bowling this weekend? I'll be at Diablo Valley Bowl practicing with Sharon Connally at 6:00 tonight and with Gary White and Olivia Reid at 9:00 Sunday morning. Drop in if you don't have anything else planned.

WEEK #2 RESULTS

Points Won: 14 - Points Lost: 13

Garrett was out sick and Quinton was jammed up in San Jose traffic so Brandon and I had to turn it up a notch this week. In their absence, we used Garrett's and Quinton's entering averages minus a ten pin penalty (188 & 202 respectively) for each game. Quinton earned two points and Garrett earned one in absentia.

Brandon and I bowled well enough for us to win the first and third games but we were edged in total pinfall by about thirty. Brandon earned three points in his head-to-head matchup while I earned two. For the night, our record was 14-13. This evened our season's record at 27-27.

You can click on the STAT SHEETS tab above to see the league's results from week #1.

I scored 191-185-233 (609) with The Blockheads tonight. After last week's fiasco, I'd be happy to repeat that on Wednesday.

OPENING NIGHT

Points Won: 13 - Points Lost: 14

We didn't exactly get off to a hot start. Well, Garrett did, with a 706 series. I felt good in the beginning but struggled most of the night. Somehow, we managed to go 13-14 for the night with only Garrett firing on all cylanders. We picked up six points for winning the second and third games plus the individual points shown below. We could have salvaged a few more points in the last game but I killed it with five splits and a missed ten pin.

The rest of the way, I expect to give you guys a lot more than the crud I turned out last night.

WHITE HOUSE BOWLING ALLEY

I visited the White House in July but I didn't get to see this part of it.


Why did it have to be the worst
president who was an avid bowler?



Getting Started

I set up this blog as a resource for our team in the 810 Showcase League. I intend for it to be a place we can exchange information, maintain schedules and stats, keep up with news about our league and the sport of bowling in general. Where it goes from here is up to us.
