Sugar River Euchre

The Red Mouse Shufflers had high aspirations of derailing the Starlight Express. By the end of the 4th frame, and with a 23-point lead, it looked promising. But with the Express picking up 23 points in the 5th frame the scores were tied. The Shufflers gained 5 points in the 6th and lost 4 in the 7th, leaving them with just a 1-point lead going into the final frame. Unfortunately, the 111 points recorded by Shufflers Erik Massey and Randy Skogen wasn’t enough to secure the win or offset fellow Shufflers Steve Vogt and Shane Kahl’s 72 points (this week’s low score).
