• I was told he was the Problem Child great potential hard on himself and bad attitude (he overcame that this year with a better attitude well most of the time)
• One of Holly’s best yearly performances since AA
• He could have won most of these awards
• Improved average by 30 pins
• Helped each bowler and tried to fire up the team
• No one opened bowled more than Ryan (I am sure it will be like his parents got a pay raise not paying for bowling now)
• I hope he finds and College and continues to bowl at the next level if not I know who my doubles partner is.
