Alleycats defeated Century B in the semi-final of the George Davis Cup.

TWO of Weston’s top Central League teams took to the Golden Lion alley to battle it out for a place in the George Davis cup final.

Century B took an early lead by taking both the first two sets by 17 pins. In the third set, Century’s Steve Partridge got a spare, but some fine skittling by Alleycats’ John Bastin (60) helped pull 15 pins back.

On the last hand of the night, the Century boys set the Alleycats a 24 hand down to book their place in the final. It was left to Steve Barker to score nine to tie and 10 to win.

He scored an eight one-baller, missed it next time and then picked up the single pin to take the game into a fifth set.

The final set was pretty much one-way traffic with help from Barker’s excellent three spares in scoring 65, the Alleycats booked their place in the cup final for the fourth year running.

Scores - Century B 522 (Steve Partridge 50), Alleycats 522 (John Bastin 60). Fifth set: Century B 128 (Rob Tancock 47), Alleycats 160 (Steve Barker 65). Thanks go to the young lady sticker-up.
