MINNESOTA JUNIOR BOWLER’S TOUR

MJBT is an Official PBA JUNIOR AFFILIATE the 2024-25 season!

The MJBT headed to River City Extreme in Monticello, MN for the 30th Annual Mike Light Jr MJBT/CBA doubles event. We had  38 entries (26 boys and 12 girls) to come out and compete on a typical MJBT/CBA doubles pattern. The 41 ft, 27 mL, and a 7.4 to 1 ratio would make striking a little easier and the hopes of a good time would be had by all.

On the girls side, CONGRATULATIONS to Zoe Skinner and Molly Novak (former MJBT member) for going wire-to-wire this month and bringing home the title. They would be taking on the #3 seeded Kalli Triske & Nikki Reese. The baker doubles format uses a two game total pins to determine the winner and after the first match, Zoe & Molly had built a 31 pin lead. However, Kalli & Nikki started the 2nd match strong, while Zoe & Molly struggled. Kalli and Nikki each had a split late in the game, that was their ultimate undoing, as Zoe & Molly cruised to the title,  206-194/400 to 175-182/357.

For the boys, CONGRATULATIONS to Drake Wait and Steve Marget (former MJBT member) for getting to the winners circle. Drake & Steve were the #3 seeds for the stepladder and would be taking on the #1 seeded Landen Myers & Tyler Rittenour for the title. Drake & Steve came out firing and built a 29 pin lead after the first match. Landen & Tyler struggled to find the carry that they had all day long, which allowed Drake & Steve to coast to the win, 248-209/457 to 219-178/397.

Thank you to CBA Tournament Director, Jason Hanson, Erin Novak, the CBA membership, and the entire staff at River City Extreme for being great hosts this month. A huge THANK YOU to all the parents and athletes for continuing to make the MJBT a premier youth scratch event in the Upper Midwest!
