The SCL returns to action after taking the back burner for about a week to the UPCL. We begin with...
The American Rebels hosting the Guatemala Conquistadors. Guatemala got 250 from Frisco Romero to start. Axel Cools stumbled to 72 for American, getting off to a weak start. Eustacio Zarraga tallied 401 for the Conquistadors. Louvel Lefevre had only 235 for the Rebels. Kenzo Hashimoto pulled in 271 for Guatemala, adding onto their lead. Sander Lambert dragged American back into the game with a strong 551. Curtis Caldwell slugged back with 663 for the Conquistadors, keeping them in control of the game. Irsyad Sudjana ripped 640 to keep the Rebels in striking distance. Azul Mora sliced 153 for Guatemala in an unusually low performance. Sabino Chacon smacked 332 for American to give them the lead. Adrien Laurent kept the Conquistadors alive with 160 for a final of 1898. Cisco Solorio fell just short with 66 for the Rebels, giving them a final of 1896 in a narrow loss. Guatemala jumps to 9-6, leapfrogging the now 9-7 American squad.
Next up, the Amsterdam Hotstove welcome the Manila Pacmen. Haejun Ki kept up his good road work with 511 for Manila to begin. Jerry Burke answered with 372 for Amsterdam. Porfirio Cazares had only 112 for the Pacmen. Yaozu Miao pulled the Hotstove into the lead with 326. Sander Verheyen knocked 247 for Manila to keep them competitive. Carlos Barajas batted 195 for Amsterdam, making it a very close game at the halfway mark. Gerben Bovelt put up 327 to give the Pacmen a reasonable lead. Veto Casas couldn't keep pace for the Hotstove with a meager 88 point effort. Dries Renard broke free with 672 for Manila, opening a large lead. Andrew Reynolds grabbed 290 for Amsterdam. Richard Miller managed a pathetic 33 for the Pacmen, giving them a final of 1902. Manolito Avalos had just 117 for the Hotstove, as they lost with 1388. Manila is now tied for 8th at 7-8 while Amsterdam is a loss away (or win by Manila, Seoul, or Prague) from being knocked out of the playoff picture at 3-17.
Continuing along, the Bangkok Sixes host the Manila Pacmen. Haejun Ki unleashed 580 for Manila to open their second game in a row. Firdoze Uns smacked 622 for Bangkok, giving them a slight lead. Porfirio Cazares stunned everyone with 890 for the Pacmen, a dramatically improved effort from the usual weak link for the team. Gilbert Berry dropped off with 98 for the Sixes, putting them in severe trouble. Sander Verheyen scored 288 for Manila, keeping them in strong control. Aleix Nieto managed only 89 for Bangkok, furthering their woes in this game. Gerben Bovelt slapped 400 for the Pacmen as they continue to surge. Zuri Okafor hit 312 for the Sixes, holding the deficit fairly steady. Dries Renard had a measly 33 for Manila, as they enter cruise control. Rodas Nunez pummeled 814 for Bangkok, making the game far from over. Richard Miller produced 128 for the Pacmen for a final of 2319. Luis Godinez managed 152 for the Sixes, leaving them short at 2087 in the loss. Manila goes to 8-8 while Bangkok drops to 11-6. The Amsterdam Hotstove are officially eliminated now.
Ending the segment, the Brussels Chocolatiers bring in the Bangkok Sixes. Firdoze Uns began with 240 for Bangkok. Patrido Salazar answered with 295 for Brussels for a narrow lead. Gilbert Berry stumbled to 128 for the Sixes, who appear to be in trouble again. Florent Claes slugged 722 to put the Chocolatiers firmly in front. Aleix Nieto chipped 192 for Bangkok, as they continue to flounder. Dobromil Zeman tallied 276 for Brussels, maintaining the lead in a simple way. A bad bounce cut down the Sixes' Zuri Okafor at 75, with a rebound coming off the next ball too hot to handle. Rodas "1.0" Cazares had 256 for the Chocolatiers. He still bettered his mini-me, Rodas "2.0" Nunez, who scored just 96 for Bangkok. Eric Zaragoza produced 209 for Brussels as they cruise to the finish. Luis Godinez struggled to 75 for the Sixes, ending the brutal loss at 806 total. Jaturun Choen iced the Chocolatiers win at 1842. Brussels is now 7-11 while Bangkok is 11-7.
More to come over the rest of this week.
