Alice Monahan’s 514/210 was Sherwood’s top lady, followed by Peach Rounds’ 493/180.
Rick High was the area’s top senior in the area, rolling 637/242 at The Bowler. Gary Friend’s 555 set was Par-Matt’s top senior score and Pat Logsdon rolled 498/189 at White Oak Lanes.
Amanda Greene was the area’s top youth bowler, scoring 659/255 at Wilson Lanes. Danny Walch scored 654/243 at The Bowler and Larissa Blizzard rolled 622/253 at White Oak Lanes. Youth Ben Russell bowled 565/214 at Sherwood and Charles Abernathy scored 544/189 at Rainbow Lanes.
The warmer weather recently affects how the lanes conditions break down compared to the stretch of cold temperatures of the last several weeks. The warm temperatures heat up the whole building so the lanes will break down relatively uniformly rather than be subject to the circulation caused by the center’s heating system. This still means that adjustments to lane conditions have to be made based on your ball reaction. The warm weather should help to keep each pair of lanes close to being the same.
Good luck bowling and have fun striking out!
