For the first time this year, the high score for the week was a perfect 120 points. In the match between Kleeman’s and J&M Bar, two Kleeman couples, Steve Sponem and Don Williams and Rick Skindrud and Jeff Judd, hit that mark. With two perfect scores for the Hay-Shakers and no one breaking a 100 for the River Rats, Kleeman’s easily won this one by 97 points, putting them in sole possession of first place.
