South Glens Falls - Floyd Butler and Don Williams threw the only 600 sets in Thursday's Forever Young action at Kingpin's Alley. Floyd got progressively better with 205, 226 and a finishing 255 for 686 while Williams tallied 206, 242 and 226 for 674. Each was instrumental in leading their team to 3-1 victories as the FY entered the crucial final weeks of play.

George Bristol started 195-198 to get to 554 for Boston Strong Balls as they beat Team Adirondack 3-1. Mike White subbed for Barb Arnold again and pitched 524 in North & South's shutout of The Wombats. Mark Basso's 514 paced the Yanks to a 4-0 win against the Pepins, and Carol Finkle joined Wyman's attempt versus the Tomahawks with 170-190-150 for 510.

Fire and Ice maintained their seven-point edge over Long-Short, who also went 3-1 against an absent Pribis duo. The lead over the Tommies is still eight. Four weeks remain on the schedule, meaning sixteen available points.

Williams raised his average to 221. Floyd sits at 211 and Wyman at 204.
