It's that time of the year. Entry deadlines for state are nearing. The women's cut-off date is March 25 and I have no idea how long the men have. Averages for state use may be found on your USBC card, if you have not misplaced it. If so, give me a call for the women and Shawn Mariani for the men.

Shirley Kline and Trisha Keeler tied for the women's high game last week. Trisha had the high series of 532. The only other 𔄝” was by Marjie Spinler, a 501.

Jim Kirkpatrick lit up the lanes with a 265, 222 and 670, and a four-game of 840. Shawn Mariani broke the barrier with a 212, 224 and 626. Chris Pappas had a 233, Jack Jacobson a 222 and Terry Grant a 235.

Michele Mariani picked a 2-7, Michelle Beck a 6-7-10, Lana Herman a 6-7, and Karen Knorr a 6-7-10.

You have read Terry Grant's name quite often here. I noticed he ONLY had a 598 this week. I checked out his average and it's ONLY at 204. Terry are you still throwing that stupid back-up ball? If you are, I won't call it stupid anymore.

Reece Sterner shot a 178, Chase Hadford a 486, and Jourdon Han a 169 and 446 for the major highs. K-Lines had the high team game of 730 and Koefod Insurance the series of 2,163. Junior highs were Tyson Latray with a 147 and 372 and Tande Smith with a 139 and 404. Team highs were a 725 by McNair Furniture and 2,119 by Milk River Co-op.

James White and Sara Vazquez had the highs for the Preps with 150 and 338, and a 87 and 208, respectively. Steve White had the team game of 473 and the series of 1,311 was shot by Baker Amusement. Bantam highs were Gavin Spinler with a 92 and 242 and Tylynn Rettig with a 143 and 360. Spinler Farms had the team highs of 479 and 1,349.

Tylynn Rettig, at age 8 and rolling in the Bantam league, had a 172 and 397. Steve Ramsbacher shot a 263 game and

534 series.

Have you been watching the pro tour Sunday mornings? Walter Ray Williams missed out on equaling Earl Anthony's win record last Sunday. The program may be seen on ESPN. Check your listing for the time.
