Bill Conn’s pool of bowlers won the Garioch Bowling Senior 4s league title again, writes Mike Barron.
It is the fourth time in five years that they have won the Senior Monday 4s.
Alan Miller is the new face in the team. He joins Ian Beattie, John Nicol, Ian Ingram, Gordon Spence (Snr), Ron Booth and sponsor Bill Conn.
Their record this year was played 24, won 18, drawn one, lost 5 and finished with 37 points with +186 shots. They were six points ahead of the Jim Morrison pool.
Jim Low was pipped for second spot by losing his final game to the Norman Hepburn rink 8-12 on Monday. Jim Morrison beat Bill Ross on the final day.
A look through the 24 fixtures Bill Conn had five losses.
Of that number, Jim Morrison defeated the Conn rink three times out of four. He won 11-9 (December 10), 10-9 (February 5) and 12-9 (March 25). Jim must be regretting some defeats against lesser opposition.
The other losses were against Jim Low 5-12 and Bill Ross 11-13. Conn’s draw was against Norman Hepburn 10-10.
