How do you go 300/796 and get 2 points?

Here are the results of Tour Stop #5 in the Inner Coastal District

Motion To Strike: 38, Striking Vipers: 2
Houston Singletary goes off for a 300 and a 796 series for the Striking Vipers. However, if you look at the score, it’s not a typo. Motion To Strike bombard the Vipers with 7’s from Oppie Sheffleid Jr (752), Kevin Coviak (747) Duke Harrell (729), Daniel Hamilton (710), Daniel Flemming (710) and Dion Gattling (706). The Vipers get stuck with a blind for the first game, and then everyone that does show up shoots a combined 348 pins under average – and that included a 714 from Jason Plackett. The Vipers still stay in third despite a 34-86 record for the past 3 tour stops. MTS remain in first with a 108-12 record for the past 3 tour stops of their own. However, they haven’t had their bye yet…

Reality Check: 38, Loose Cannons: 2
…and Reality Check has – and they are only 22 pins off the lead after demolishing Loose Cannons. Mark Tarkington (732) Anthony Starks (716) and Peter Balderas (709) keep Reality Check undefeated in tour stop play. Ironically, the Cannons had the better series with Michael Slusher’s and Kenneth Autry’s 740, which goes well with Franklin Lamm Jr’s 703. However, the Cannons also had the worse series’ and a combined 265 pins under average from everyone else dooms their match and drops you to 6th.

The Watchmen: 32, Precise Vision: 8
Rick Petersen’s 793 was not the high series of the Tour Stop, but him and Jacob Satterlie (712) combine to wreck PV’s handicap squads by a combined 533 pins. The Watchmen, 58-22 for the past 2 tour stops, move up to 3rd while PV, 16-64 for the past 2 tour stops, remain in 5th.

Total Chaos: 30, Reckless Abandon: 10
Total Chaos becomes the last team to get a tour stop win, but they get one and move up to 7th. Reckless Abandon was more sloppy than reckless: a combined 547 pins under average (??!!?) jumps them out of last despite a 28-92 record over the past 3 tour stops only because the Phoenix Fire had their bye this week.
