Don't tick off the vet's
« on: September 02, 2003, 08:52:00 PM »
Finally got to bowl in our tuesday night classic. My 5 man team made of the best of the best juniors in the area. We got placed against probably one of the premier teams in the league.

First game we shoot 1100 even and beat them by 100,

Second game we were down 170 in the 6th frame when we all started stringing and came back to win by 70.

On an 8 point system we have 4 points already with one game left to go, so we are pretty confident to get 6.

Boy did we think wrong, they must not have been happy about a bunch of younguns hurtin em because they shot 1285 the last game to win total from us by 8 pins. we shot a low 1100, but my god i've never seen anything like what they did to us, four of their bowlers had the front 5, 2 had the front 9, one shot 289, two 279's, and some other just amazing scores.

We shot well, 60 or 70 pins over our entering 1050 average, but just wow. Can't say much except great bowling, and good to see alot of good competition in the league. And never assume anythin when it comes to seasoned veterans, because..just wow.

damn straight. We were gettin not cocky, but confident after the first two cause we were really puttin up some scores and strings. But they showed us. I tried to keep our team in it, but when they throw 17 of 20 strikes out the gate its tough to keep up. I'm glad tho, i like seeing good teams and competition, the juniors all left because they said they were sick of beating up on kids, well now they get to be the donators in adults for awhile. But we held our own pretty well i was impressed i thought our 4 YABA bowlers would be nervous, but they brought it to the table nicely
