Red Mouse team Uff-Da had one of its easiest nights of the season thus far to remain atop the league as the only undefeated team. The Trolls, for the second week in a row, were not able to field (table??) a team and had to forfeit the match to team Uff-Da.
Playing the role of visitors at their home bar, the Norsk Golf Club Cowboys needed every round of ammunition they could find to ward-off the Pranksters by 18 points. With none of the Cowboy couples scoring less than 99 points and only one couple for the Pranksters breaking 100. The 111 points from Chris and Corey just wasn’t enough trickery to pull a win out of the hat.
At their new home, the Ope House Pub in Barneveld, the Express led by engineers Charlie Steinhauer and Shawn Farrell pulled out of the station ahead of the Shufflers. With Charlie and Shawn’s 115 points in the tank, the Express had plenty of fuel aboard to maintain the lead throughout their journey to a 27-point victory. Unfortunately for the Shufflers, Tom Meyer and Steve Vogt recorded this week’s low score of 81.
All the J&M Bar River Rats scored 100 plus points this week to easily scurry to a 55-point win over the Hay Shakers. Mark Raders and Honker (Dan Palmer) led the way for the Rats, scarfing up 110 points from the Hay Shakers. Rats Gordie Miller and Tracy Funseth helped the effort by handing Jeff Goebler and Jerry Judd just 1-point in the first game of the match. Jeff Goebler and Jerry Judd were glad to escape the skunk.
Cousins to the River Rats, the Cheese Eaters also had a decent night. However, they couldn’t quite pinch enough cheese from the Pipe Bender’s job box to pull out a win. Jerome Krantz and Mark Losenegger scored 116 points for the Pipe Benders, this week’s high score, to help secure the 36-point win. Their only loss came in the 7th game to Cheese Eaters Larry Disch and Jeff Buesser.
Happy hunting!
