LUA vs. No Way But Up Gamenight


Lubbock-The Lubbock Urban Achievers, fresh off their victory in round 1 of the round robin Strike It Rich bowling league showdown, take on No Way But Up tonight at 7pm at Classic Lanes lanes 26 and 27. Last week our heroes were able to shrug off the competition of Lady and 3 Pricks, and take a handicap aided point out of four in the contest. This week will prove to be a tough test.
Captain EL REY DE PEZ of the LUA, has said that the team has been working on a zone defense to compensate for the lack of the Cliff Clavinesque overtures of Right Fielder Jay, who may or not be out tonight due to job commitments. Also, look for the Achievers to unveil their secret weapon tonight in the form of brownie baking officianado, Rodney. Defensemen Rodney, an avid amateur bowler will provide needed strength in the middle of the lineup and hopefully provide some key back checking in the neutral zone. Look for a big night. Starters tonight for LUA will also be Helmut at Power Forward, Ronnie G at Striker, and REY at Sweeper.
NO WAY BUT UP is led by Captain Marilyn Fish. Last week Fish had a league high score game of 245 pins and finished the series with 651 pins, tops for all women. There is talk that the only way to stop her is to cut the Achilles tendon in her pivot foot so that she will push everything off to the left. Barring that unfortunate injury in the parking lot, there is little hope. No WAY also gets ample support from Larry, Ed, and Stephen. They often switch in and out of their '1-3-1 trap' into a 'Cover 2", to throw others into confusion.
The only hope is that the crowd support for the Achievers can be the 5th bowler.

Seats are free but you'll only need the edge. See you between the lanes!
