It’s been another beautiful week in the neighborhood with moderate temperatures, some much needed rain and the seemingly omnipresent zephyrs (sometimes ramped up to gale force winds) that have caused a lot of branches, twigs and leaves being separated from trees.
Some of our junior bowlers have recently garnered accolades for their achievements. Oliver Harms was named Bowler of the Year in the Wisconsin JBST (Junior Bowler Scholarship Tour) while Paityn Hauge took first place in the scratch division of the WYBT (Wisconsin Youth Bowler Tour) during last weekend’s competition. A huge factor in their successes has been the coaching of Jake Harrison, Brendan Holl and Dylan Werner who have contributed many hours of their knowledge to our young bowlers. The Junior Gold competition is about 4 weeks away in Minneapolis and our bowlers will be quite ready.
In somewhat subdued scoring conditions, Curtis Paul led all bowlers with a 652 series after a 238 start. Butch Layton was close behind at 647 with a 223 finale while Mike Wernsing was at 619 with a 265 final game. Jake Harrison was at 606 with a 222 final game while Bob Rapp was a pin back at 605 with a 207 middle game. Curtis Paul currently holds the high average at 224 after 5 weeks of competition in the 2026 Riviera Bowl Summer League. Mike Wernsing is 1 pin back with a 223 average.
Andrea Murray led the ladies with a 554 series that included a 219 second game while Paityn Hauge was at 535 and Kim Paul was at 527 after a 207 middle game.
Until next time, keep striking

Week #4 of the 2026 Riviera Bowl Summer League is in the books during the middle of a windy, rainy week. Leading all bowlers was Mike Wernsing for the Kniggits team on lanes 3 & 4. He put together games of 230, 246 and 226 for his finely crafted 702 series. Brendan Holl finished with a 247 finale for his 663 set while Scott Noltemeyer hit 650 after a 265 start. Dave Loecher was at 607 with a 236 finish while Butch Layton was at an even 600 with a 215 middle game. Elliot Harms, the youngest member of the very talented Brew Crew team, bested his junior bowling teammates with a nice 544 series on games of 174, 191 and 179. Elliot is one of our junior bowlers headed for the Junior Gold bowling competition in Minneapolis in mid July.
Last evening I convinced Kim Paul that she really wanted to join the summer league. As luck would have it, she ended up on my team. Anyway, she proceeded to roll a 545 series that included a 245 personal high game to lead the ladies of the league. Welcome to the Angels & Demons. At a close second was Jackie Dyrud who hit 539 after a 202 middle game with Jeanne Overboe hitting 528 after a 190 start.
Until next time, keep striking

The Wednesday evening Riviera Men’s Classic held their 4-team roll off last evening, Apr 22nd, with the teams of K & K Auto, Riviera Bowl, Steven’s Construction and Gustafson’s Body Shop participating. The format was for each team to bowl one complete game against each of the other three teams with points being awarded for the bowler-to-bowler match-ups and team games.
The Riviera Bowl team fairly well dominated the evening to claim top honors of being league champions for the 2025-2026 season. The Riviera team was led by Garrett Pape’s 720 series on games of 235, 245 and 240. Along with Garrett’s great series, Sonny Stock got close with a 698; Tom Curtis ended at 694; Jeff Dyrud was at 579 and Jaydon Stock finished at 545. Congratulations to the Riviera team and their great bowling. The season ending banquet is scheduled for the 29th where prize $$ and other paraphernalia will be distributed.
In approximately 4 weeks, the 2026 Riviera Bowl Summer League will commence. We still have room for 2 teams. Bowling cost is $12.00/bowler each night with $6.00 going to junior bowling and the competitive school teams. Come on down and have some fun.

The 9-pin tap tournament for the junior bowlers attending this summer’s Junior Gold competition in Minneapolis in mid-July was a great success on Sunday, Apr 12th. Many, many bowlers showed up to participate and a good time was had by all.
The 2026 Riviera Sumer League is rapidly filling up with room for two more 4 or 5 person teams. Bowling commences on Wednesday, May 20th, at 7:00 PM.
League competition is now complete at Riv with some of the banquets having already been held and some roll offs in the offing. The Spares & Strikes Forever Couple’s League saw last season’s winners, Spare Me a Beer, repeat as league champions by virtue of winning both halves this season.
In the Tuesday evening Riviera Ladies Classic, the Alkar Pin Smokers accomplished the same feat.
In the Monday evening roll offs for the Monday Night Special, the Unknowns claimed the crown in a very close contest edging Custom Installation, The Gym and Dreamworks. Their season ending banquet is scheduled for this coming Monday, Apr 20th.
Congrats to the winning teams.
In final week’s action of the Riviera Men’s Classic, Alisha Rapp led the ladies with a 595 series after a 230 start (she whupped me again) with Tammy Young at 560 and Jeanne Overboe in at 511. Brendan Holl put on a 2-handed bowling display in this last week of league competition with a magnificent 780 series on big games of 277, 234 and 269. Dan Rapp rolled a 743 series with great games of 251, 279 and 213. Chris Huppert put together games of 246, 250 and 233 for his 729 series while John Lehan managed a 703 with games of 243, 202 and 258. Don Larsen got close with a 697 after a league high 288 finishing game while Jake Harrison was at 693 with a 265 middle game. Mike Wernsing was a pin back at 692 after a 244 closing game with Jeff Dyrud at 674 and Nick Hartley with a “mark of the beast” 666 series. Bob Rapp was at 658 with Curtis Paul at 646 and Reese Brereton at 653 after a 278 start. Mike Lien started with a 258 game for his 647 set while Jason Miller finished at 638. Scott Roelke, Troy Hauge, Corey Clark and Austin Udelhofen finished at 627, 626, 614 and 613 respectively.
The roll off teams for the Wednesday night Riviera Men’s Classic are set with Steven’s Construction winning the third 3rd and Gustafson’s Auto Body claiming the wild card sport. These two teams will square off against first 3rd winner K & K Auto and second 3rd winner Riviera Bowl on Apr 22nd. Good luck to these 4 teams.
