Brisbane 2015 - Day 5

It's State Comp day, and Hornsby Rockets had representatives in both the Open Category (Adam M.) and the Restricted Category (Emma C and Natham C)

Supporters were in abundance, usually decked out with fashionable head gear. The Melbourne Cup could learn a lesson or two.

I'm not going to pretend to fully understand how the scoring works. Some people do pretend, but I don't think anyone really, completely knows.

Anyway, at the end of a very long and crowded day, after the points for the winning teams and the winning pairs and pin falls (follow all that?), the results are in.

In a very tight set of games, the NSW Restricted Squad were pipped at the finish line by Tasmania, tied for third on points, but slipping to fourth on pin fall.

In an even tighter match, NSW squeaked by QLD on pin fall, grabbing the gold.

It was an exhausting day for the bowlers. Congratulations to all of them, and well done. We're very proud or you all.
