Ted Roberts swept his opponent away with a 6-0 blanking. Doug Paquette won the front 9 FIVE! up and coasted to a 5-1 win. Captain Sheldon Silberman won the front 9 only FOUR up and also coasted in with a 4-2 win. Overall the 18-6 win pushed them out of the cellar and only 2 points out of 11th.
The Golden team had an odd match with each match a sweep. Mark Steinhauser didn’t have his best stuff and was blanked 0-6. Stan Hop shot a very nice net 73 and blanked hi opponent 6-0. Matt McClernan, making his only start of the year struggled like Mark and he got swept 0-6. Gary Scharmer, who has won 76% of the points he has played for this season swept his opponent 6-0. The 12-12 tie did not help the Golden Team standings, dropping them one spot back to 5th place.
