Pointing in the Right Direction

This weeks Skittles matches produced two good wins for the two teams I play for. On Monday the Jockey's were playing at the Poppe Inn, One of only two away games I can walk to, the second being the other alley at the Perry Street Club.
We won the toss and and elected to play second in this our 4th Nomination League match of the season. We started well and and claimed both points. We ended up winning 12 points to 0 and by 80 pins.
The next night the Hustlers played the Cupid Stunts, a new team in the league this year. We were on first and posted a score of 76, Our opponents came back with 75 but lost the points by tying the second leg and losing both on count back.
Our second hand was much better and we hit 88 with the Cupid Stunts only managing 61 giving us a healthy lead and all the points. This proved to be the turning point and we went on to win 16-0 taking both the next two hands and all the points to keep the pressure on the Outlaws whose lead over us is now just 3 points.
So two wins in as many days and no points lost.
