Area bowlers capture Wisconsin Senior championships this spring
William Wagner Sr., of Dickeyville, Wis., won the 2008 Wisconsin State Bowling all-around championship in the 70-75 year old bracket this spring.
He has been invited to compete in the national tournament in Reno, Nev., next year.
Wagner finished with an all-events count of 2,223, including handicap, to edge Emmett Exferd, of Wabeno, by 16 pins. Wagner cashed a check for $180 for his efforts.
