February 6, 2014

Snowpocalypse 2014. Well, that’s what some are calling this recent snow storm that left many of us with over 6 inches of snow, and in some places even more. It is no secret,that I only tolerate winter weather, and also understand that there are some, who actually love all this white stuff.  I was thinking last night that in February 2009, I was probably grilling some burgers over an open grill in San Diego. Not doing that now. One thing for sure, this storm played havoc with some of the leagues again, cancelling their evening sessions once again. With the blowing wind, creating drifts in the rural areas, safety always comes first, when deciding on if the event should go on.
   Some high scores in the Church No Tap League. Leading the pack were Cal Richards with a 128, and Jimmy Scruggs with a 275. Scruggs had a 751 series, Richards with a 750, and J.R. Scruggs rolled a 702. Sue Strong had a 674, while Sharon Craft shot a 626. Others with 50 or more over their averages were Scott Cunningham, 69 over, with a 265; Devin Heinrichs, 88 over for a 246; Karen Hoskins, 74 over with a 244; and 118 average bowler, McKenna Smith, over 56, for a 174. Miles Clark knocked out the 5-8-10, while Jim Switzer picked up the 5-7.
   Let’s continue with the Tuesday Nite Go Getters, where Dick Lamb rolled a 191, 51 pins over his game average. John Mikel knocked out a 213, 62 over, Gary Holycross shot a 233, 55 over, and Derek Darr topped out his average by 54 for a 197. Split conversions include Jan Frank with the 4-6, Tony Dompe, the 6-7-9-10, Derek Darr, the 5-10, and Joe Elliott with the 4-5-7.
  The Monday Night Mixed League at Bulans had Carol Keller rolling a 189, 57 pins over average; Bruce Shephard, 55 pins over for a 211; and Rachel Watkins, 50 over, for a 179.
   The Senior League reports that Terry Bell rolled 53 over his average with a 247, and bowled a 692 series. Fred Fultz had a 209 game, 74 over average. Split pick ups included Bub Tiffin, the 5-7, Linda Engle, the 4-5-7, and Laura Baird with the 4-5.
   Lastly, the Saturday Night MeHarry’s League had Doc Finch rolling a 716 series, of which the following games were included: 239, 224, and 253. Henry Steven shot games of 247, 227, and 247 for a 717 series. Poo Nelson had a 255 game, with an average of 209, and Marvin Brandon rolled 62 over for a 247.
   That wraps up the reports for this week. If you are a league secretary, we would love to have your league reports. Drop me an e-mail message to illianabowling@gmail.com
