For the first time in many weeks, a perfect game was not reported except for the casino leagues.

But high scores and successful series were still the norm on the lanes.

Many of the leagues are looking toward the end of the season and the start of spring and summer leagues as champions will be crowned.

GAMES IN THE SPOTLIGHT

Aaron Ross, bowling in the Perfect Fit Trio, came as close to a 300 as possible, tossing a 299 high game on his way to a 918 four-game set.

Zoe Bevilacqua led the women in the league with her 198-678 effort.

Jolson French joined the miss-it-by-one-pin list as he rolled a 299 in the Garden Spot League. He was at the top of the league for high series as well, rolling a 847. Linda Bardoun was the best among the women, hitting her mark for a 257 high game and a 659 high series.

JUNIORS

Carter Flachbart (221-541) and Emily Morrison (206-581) topped the Spins Bowl Junior League and Bryson Horner (87-164) and Gabriella stevens (81-147) were the best among the bowlers in the bumper league.

The Special Needs League has been a staple at Spins Bowl for many years.

This season’s bowlers are demonstrating their skills as Jarrod Gauntner bowled a nice 254 high game and a 471 two-game set. Maranda Ailes tossed a 168-329.
