SUMMARY

the first half is over...we finish in dead last...but at least in Week 10 we finish on a winning week...we won the week 8-7 against Post Office...I fully expect to drop at least a division or 2...hopefully we can step it up in the second half a give a good run...

THE LOW LIGHTS

"dolla bills" were at 27 this week...that is the second highest total for the half...the winner of this weeks prestigious "Skippy Award" was Andy...Andy had 8 in fines (3 under 20's, 2 C-rules and 3 missed ins)...Jr was right on his tail with 7 in fines (2 under 20's, 3 missed ins and 2 squats in cricket)...Johnny (2 under 20's, 1 missed in and 1 missed out) and Matt (3 missed ins and 1 missed out) both had 4 in fines...Jeff (1 missed in and 1 missed out) and Ted (1 under 20 and 1 missed in) both had 2 in fines...

this week we hit our goal of a 50 team average...we had a 51.36 average...and we managed to do it with 4 people shooting under a 50...the low averages of the night were from Matt (41.41), John (43.72), Ted (44.03) and Andy (44.83)....

as team we shot 36.36% of our shots under a 40...if we look deeper under the covers once again we see that these culprits had more than 30% of their shots under a 40...Matt had 47.62% of his shots under a 40...Ted (39.13%), Johnny (36.36%), Jr (36.36%) and Andy (34.78%) all shot more than 30% of their shots under a 40...and the following shooters had at least 1 game average under a 40...the following are their low game average of the night...Andy (33.00), Ted (33.00), Matt (33.50) and Johnny (34.00)...

Jr shot a 7 and a 9 for the two single digit scores of the night...

this week we only had 13 missed ins....Jr, Andy and Matt had 3 missed ins each...Ted had 2 missed ins...Johnny and Jeff each had 1 missed in...

we had 19 missed outs this week...still way too many...Johnny, Jeff and Matt each had 4 missed outs...Jr and Ted each had 3 missed outs...Andy had 1 missed out...

The following shooters shot less than a 2.0 average in cricket...Andy (1.50), Jr (1.71) and Johnny (1.75)...

Johnny and Jr each had 2 0-mark cricket rounds...Andy and Matt each had 1 0-mark cricket round...

Andy and Matt only had a 42.86% win rate...

THE HIGH LIGHTS

for the 3rd week in a row we hit our goal of a 50 team average...this week we had a 51.36 team average...Jeff for the 2nd week in a row had over a 79 average...this week Jeff's average was a 79.84...Jr for the 2nd week in a row averaged over a 50...Jr's average was 54.31...imagine how high it could have been if you didn't have 2 shots in single digits...either way good job....

let's look "over the covers" again this week...i think it's important to recognize the people that average over a 40 every game...and those shooters that shoot better than 70% of their shots over a 40.....Jeff (95.24% or 1 shot) was the only shooter to shoot over 70% of his shots over a 40...the following shooters averaged over a 40 each game....the following is their low game average...Jeff (58.33) and Jr (45.83)...

this week we had 12 team tons...for the 3rd week in a row Jeff had at least 7 tons...this week Jeff had 8 tons...Jr had 2 tons...Andy and Ted each had 1 ton...Johnny and Matt weren't "in the mood" to chuck triple digit shots...

Jeff had the high score of the night with a 140...Jeff also had one of his patented 112 ons...Jr had a 125...Andy had a 102...

Jeff (4 @ 80.00%) led the way with 4 double ins...Andy had 2 double ins...Ted and Matt each had 1 double in...Jor was 0-3 at the ins...Johnny was 0-1 at the ins...

Jeff led the way with 4 double outs...Andy had 2 double outs...Jr had 1 double out...Matt and Johnny each went 0-4 at the outs...and Ted went 0-3 at the outs...

Jeff (2.80), Matt (2.38) and Ted (2.33) all had averages over 2.0 in cricket...unfortunately we were only able to get 1 cricket win out of that...

Matt led the way with 4 >=3-mark rounds...Jeff had 3 >=3-mark rounds...Johnny, Jr and Ted each had 2 >= 3-mark rounds...Andy had 1 >=3-mark rounds...

Johnny led the way with a 71.43% win rate...Jr, Jeff and Ted each had a 57.14% win rate...

CONCLUSION

a bad half of the season...but at least we finish it with a winning week...We had over a 50 team average, 12 tons, 2.09 cricket average and most importantly a 8-7 record...we probably won't start back up till end of January...don't be afraid to pick up a dart during that time...
