Tide Has Turned In Forever Young; BSB Keeps Falling
Brady (669), Williams (609) Pull Toms Closer

Even Carnac is stumped...
South Glens Falls - The season-long-leading Boston Strong Balls continue to slide back to the pack in the Forever Young league, dropping a 3-1 decision to Leftover on Thursday afternoon at Kingpin's Alley. Patrick Scanlan and partner Tracy Clemmons eked out a 3-pin win in the opener and then fell to the ultra-smooth duo of Chuck Winney and Ray Davignon. Winney posted 198-548 and Davignon 215-561. The winners are presently just 2½ points behind, sitting in third place.
Runner-up The Last Two also lost 3-1 to the BC's as Chuck Boykin crushed a 221-245-168 for 634. Mac Brill and Richard Minor are now one game clear of Leftover as the weeks wind down.
The Tomahawks kept rolling along with a 3-1 win over the Gutter Dusters. Roy Brady posted a league-best 669 on games of 212, 221 and 236 while anchor Don Williams assisted with 220, 205 and 184 for 609. The Tommies are fourth, only 3½ out.
Cameron Mitchell flew solo for the Lady Slippers and provided a 4-0 sweep of the BYE team with a fine 214-214-231 for 659. Joe Sycuro bounced back strong from some recent sub-par outings with an outstanding 586 on games of 216, 165 and 205, prodding The Singers to a 3-1 victory over Last Dance.
Floyd Butler put 204 and 232 in front of a 598 for Fire And Ice in their 3-1 nod over the Head Pins.
Brady closed in on Williams in the average race, which now stands at 204-203 for Williams.
Next week: Boston Strong Balls vs. the Lady Slippers are the top matchup. Four weeks (16 available points) remain in what has turned from a BSB runaway into a most exciting race for the crown.
