Boys 1st place team Andersen Air Force Base Dragons

The 2026 IIAAG Middle School Bowling League returned to Central Lanes on April 27 for an explosive Week 2 showdown, as teams battled through the high‑energy Team Baker format. The afternoon delivered a thrilling display of precision, poise, and competitive spirit from Guam’s rising generation of bowlers.

In the boys division, the Andersen Middle School Roadrunners stormed into Week 2 with confidence—and left no doubt why they remain one of the teams to beat. Their powerhouse quartet of Louie Chapman, Nathan Caasi, James Powers, and Landon Valliere combined for a commanding 1,154 total, securing a decisive 1st‑place finish.

Close behind, the SACS Raiders kept the pressure on throughout the day, ultimately claiming 2nd place with 1,138 pins. The Raiders’ lineup—Xavier Quinata, Aryan Dewan, Dylan Cruz, and Lyo Sawada—held the lead for much of the competition before AMS surged ahead in the final stretch.

The SIFA Manta Rays earned 3rd place with 828 pins, led by the steady efforts of Jayce Agahan, Christopher Castor, Erick Bartolome, and Alexander Espenilla. SIFA’s second squad followed closely in 4th place with 760, powered by Shaydan Bukikosa, John Tumamak, Camden Anciano‑Muna, and Clayton Tenorio.

Girls 1st place team St. John’s School Knights.

The girls division delivered its own share of drama, with the SJS Knights emerging victorious after posting an impressive 879 total to secure 1st place. The winning lineup featured Green Park, Chlorie Lee, Roxanne Reed, and Paloma Cook, who maintained consistency across all eight games.

The DCS Veritas Lions surged into 2nd place with 843 pins, fueled by strong performances from Elise Tabunar, Aria Jae Domingo, Natalie Acierto, and Sophia Lun Valencia. In 3rd place, the SACS Raiders tallied 803 pins, led by Isabella Palomo, Sophia Takahashi, Kendall Fisher, and Haley Pinaula. The SIFA Manta Rays followed in 4th place with 797, anchored by defending champion Aubreale Charfauros, alongside Thea Doromal, Tasilyn Reyes, and Avery Espiritu.

Competition resumes on Thursday, April 30, 2026, with the highly anticipated Singles event, where individual talent takes center stage and the race for season honors intensifies.
