The highlight of any day of DMA bowling is when we have a new member join us for the first time. So it was today, as Ian Webb made his first appearance. Clearly, he is an athlete who just hasn’t bowled very much. It’s nice to report that Ian saved his best game for last, giving him encouragement to have another go next week.
Some other highlights for the11 of us included a 201 game by Bill in game three, enabling his team to take that game for a win each by the three teams. Tom had two 200 games of 200 and 202. He needed a double in the 10th frame of game one not only to get the 200, but also to help his team win that one by just eight pins. Marty continued his good bowling with a second straight 531 series, leading us to believe that this is now his “new normal!” In addition to Bill, Tom and Marty having “plus” series of +40, +26, and +57, Ben was at +13 and Ted was at +28. We also had two nice split conversions: a 4-5 by Ed Sm and a rarely seen and even more rarely made 6-7-9-10 by Tom.
