It’s the last game of the season and Hustlers are looking to do the double over Shadows & to finish in a promotion slot.
1st leg opened well with JT getting our first 40 and Lofty our first 9 as they ground out an 8-pin lead. Despite a pair of 9s from Stu, 2nd leg could only hang on in there as they dropped 4 pins to see us lead by a slender 4 at the halfway point.
3rd leg opened well as Gary lead with another 9 as he & TC chalked up 2 more 40s. But Steve struggled throughout and we lost the leg by 6 pins, putting the shadows ahead for the 1st time. And so it was down to the anchors to save the day. With a pair of 9s apiece for clan Tocknell, and all 3 hitting 40s, they proved the most consistent, taking the leg by 6 pins to give victory to the ‘Slurs.
Now we wait for the rest of the results to see our final position. And wait, too, to see if that earns us promotion to Div 1. Watch this space for that news.
We wish all our readers a pleasant break before the the new seaason starts.
