Faribault Bowling Observer- Clash of the Champions?

 With the end of the season drawing near in the Faribault Bowling season, I had an idea last week. I've seen this done in Owatonna in the past and I think it would be fun to do in Faribault. Have the top two teams in every league except for Coffee League (only four teams total) put together teams to bowl in a one night tournament. Four person teams such as Central League and Wednesday Night Mixed would both be allowed to select a bowler from another team in their team to complete their five person team. If a team were to qualify in two different leagues, they would have the option as to which league they choose to represent. The other league would get to have their third place particiapte. The Coffee League could put together a five person team to represent their league. It could be that one last big night of bowling before everyone busts out the golf clubs, volleyball clothes and softball gear. What does everyone think? Remember, last year Winter stuck around for a long time so it's not like the tournament would keep everyone from enjoying a nice night outside.

Onto the leagues and three stars of the week:

Wednesday Night Mixed

I was unable to get recaps from last Wednesday night. I will try to have them in next week's blog. My deepest apologies.

Notes:

Bashers/Faribowl has been without power since Thursday. Power is not expected to be restored until Tuesday. Reasons for the power outage have not been disclosed. As of now, as far as leagues go...

Monday and Tuesday Night leagues are postponed this week

Wednesday Night Mixed is planning to bowl, but that could change depending on the impending snow storm. (Edit: Wednesday night was called off due to the forecast of a snow storm).
