After winding up the City Championships for men and women over the past month, regular league action again takes the spotlight despite the week’s schedule being abbreviated by the prior Tuesday's storm cancellations.

For the second report in a row, Tim Haldorson led all ABC division bowlers with a 698 while rolling in the Thursday Classic Scratch league. Jesse Duholm followed closely behind again for the second time in a row with a 688. Larry Eikmeier, also in the Classic league, had the week's high game of 266.

John Johnson of the senior men's division showed consistency in the senior division with a week-leading 657 series and 233 game on Thursday, and a 583 during the Tuesday league. Bob Dahlback had his highest series this year with a 654 on Thursday. Lu Cline put together a nice series to lead the senior ladies with a 566 total that included a 195 game. Addie Cochlin had the lady senior high game of 210.
