The Cooma Bowling Club's men's triples championship was held last Saturday with the greens quick and conditions ideal for bowlers. The teams were Peter Marsicano, Don Menchin and Mark Buckley, playing Max Butler, Col Roberson and Geoff Venables. During the game, the two skips, Mark and Geoff, were in scintillating form. Both repeatedly delivered 'miracle' shots to steal an end or to save their team going down several shots. Geoff is the reigning singles champion and in the triples he showed why he is the club champion. Mark's team got off to a good start, after seven ends they led 9-4. After 13 ends, the score was 17-8. At the end of end 15, Mark's team stilll led 21-13 and 25-17 after 20 ends. The score reached 25-21 with two ends left. Mark's team scored three shots to wrap-up the championship 28-21.
