The third game almost went that path too. If it weren't for the three consecutive strikes (Yes, a turkey! Oohh, minor prize for me!) in the 10th frame, my score would've barely grazed the 100 mark again. I ended with a 141 for the third game. My final game for week one had me scoring 136.
We won the first game, lost the next two, and won the final one in a catch-up style. The final game had us down by around 30-40 pins in the eighth frame due to their extremely large handicap (they should fix mine, they gave me a handicap that screams "I average a 150!" ). We fought back with closed frames, and I got a strike at the 10th frame. This caused a close fight with the opponent leading by a mere 5 pins on the last frame of our final bowler. He did one better, and scored a spare 7.
We almost won the third game too if our final bowler had made the spare-6. Unfortunately, he left it open.
But it was a good first week for our team, and for me. I look forward to next week since I seemingly have gotten hold of the lane. I am expecting to have better and higher scores come next Saturday.
===============
Talk about close :)
The other two teams in our division were really duking out in their last game. A real close, so close that it came to one final frame with one remaining player left, score tied.
