1st Lynda Finn reigned in all relevant statistical categories, going 4-1 +315 with the highest average (445) and most bingos (13) of any player. She only had one loss and she got it out of the way quickly, dropping game one to club leader Bryan Benwitz, 311-429. Lynda immediately turned things around with a big 464-353 win against club second-placer Charles Reinke, getting bingos of TITRATED,  GENTLED, and SERIOUS along the way. This was followed by a 437-397 win over Richard Lauder where Lynda pulled it out despite dishing out fewer bingos (INERTIAS, IDEATING) than she was on the receiving end of (HANDSET, FELLATES, SPINELS). First place was secured decisively in the final round when Lynda played two games at once and cruised in both, beating Sara McLaughlin 484-393 and the 3-0 Ron Malzer 527-336. Lynda's bingo list expanded to obscene proportions as she added seven total bingos to her scorecard: SNAILED, SWIFTER, DETAINEE, CARNIES, EVENTER, GRANITAS, and PATRONS.

2nd Thomas Reinke's 4-1 record gained him some ground in the yearly standings, but his +116 spread didn't do much for him in the nightly standings, leaving him stranded in second place. He opened the night with two wins against his two main nemeses in the club standings, 430-391 vs. Charles Reinke (bingoing with TENTIER and RATTAILS) and 421-392 vs. Bryan Benwitz (REDEYES, TINNIEST). Thomas then got a sizable win against Dennis Lloyd, 468-340, but that sizable win was cleanly negated by just as sizable a loss, 325-445 against Ron Malzer. The evening concluded with a 447-407 rematch win over Charles Reinke, with Thomas finding PATIENCE, TYROSINE, and CIRRIPED (don't forget the E hook for CIRRIPEDE!) and Charles getting ENGORED# and CORNUSES.

3rd Ron Malzer improved significantly on his season average of 366 by averaging 413 per game, and this improved scoring output clearly manifested itself in the "win" column as Ron finished with a 3-1 +186 record. He started off nicely with a 431-329 win over Dennis Lloyd, although Ron's phony JOLTINGS* will give him a slight uptick in his phony percentage. In round two, Ron wiped the floor with Richard Lauder, getting down DONATING to Richard's RAPHIDE (alternately spelled RAPHIS, which confusingly pluralizes to RAPHIDES). A milestone was reached in the next round as Ron got his first-ever win against a Reinke, defeating Thomas Reinke 445-325 despite recording no bingos (one suspects that bingos were played but not recorded on the scorecard). A glorious 4-0 record was in sight at that point, but Ron was turned away from that goal in brutal fashion via a 336-527 loss to Lynda Finn.
