This Week’s Update
New Contenders Emerge as the Championship Race Tightens
The leaderboard saw another shakeup this week as several teams made big moves, but the familiar names are still sitting at the top.
Chad Hartrich and David Robinson continue to lead the league with 71 points after another solid nine-point week. While they remain in first, their once comfortable lead has started to shrink as the teams behind them continue to post strong rounds.
Scott Connour and Darrel Schultz are now just two points back after a 13 point performance pushed them to 69 points. What looked like a runaway a few weeks ago has quickly become a race.
Ben Cochran and Zac Young made the biggest move among the leaders. Their outstanding 19-point week vaulted them back into third place with 61 points, reminding everyone why they were the early season leaders.
Starbody Team Continues Hot Streak
John and Terry Starbody continue to be one of the hottest teams in the league.
Another impressive 14-point round moved them into fourth place with 59 points. Just a month ago they found themselves near the bottom of the standings, but after scoring 13, 18, and 14 over the last three weeks, they’ve climbed all the way into the championship conversation.
Not far behind, Darcy Boyles and Lucas Cycotte remain fifth at 56 points, while Jaycee Starbody and Will Horve continue their remarkable comeback season.
After opening the year with a rough first month, Jaycee and Will have caught fire, posting rounds of 13, 20, and now 22 points over their last three appearances. Their latest 22 point effort, the highest team score of the season, has propelled them into sixth place with 50 points and made them one of the league’s hottest teams.
Individual Spotlight
The individual race is becoming just as interesting as the team standings.
Top Individual Averages
- Chad Hartrich 15.0
- Darrel Schultz 15.0
- Darcy Boyles 16.0
- John Starbody 14.0
- Ben Cochran 14.0
- Lee Purdeu 14.0
Several players continue to carry their teams every week. Darcy Boyles has quietly been the league’s highest-scoring individual with a 16-point average, while Chad Hartrich and Darrel Schultz continue their remarkably consistent play at the top.
John Starbody has also put together one of the league’s strongest recent stretches, averaging 14 points while leading his team’s climb into fourth place.
Week’s Biggest Team Scores
- 22 Points – Jaycee Starbody / Will Horve
- 19 Points – Ben Cochran / Zac Young
- 16 Points – Jamie Gahwiler / Grant Gahwiler
- 15 Points – Jay Manship / Mark Dunn
- 14 Points – John Starbody / Terry Starbody
Looking Ahead
With nearly half the season still remaining, the championship picture is beginning to take shape.
The top four teams are now separated by only 12 points, and every week seems to produce another team making a charge up the standings. If recent history has shown us anything, one big round can completely change a team’s season.
Can Hartrich and Robinson hold on to the lead? Will Connour and Schultz finally catch them? Or will one of the league’s hottest teams, like the Starbodys or Jaycee and Will continue their charge toward the top?
The second half of the season should be a fun one. Good luck to everyone next week, as it’s a scramble for cash$$$!
