Nick Hoagland is the 2024 recipient of the Jim Jaryszak Laneman Award, and received it in front of family and friends prior to the U.S. Open presented by Go Bowling telecast at Royal Pin Woodland in Indianapolis.
The award recognizes a person for their behind-the-scenes work as a laneman.
“For a lane guy, this is different because we’re just trying to hide in the shadows, and we’re not looking for any credit,” Hoagland said. “But this is a big deal, and I appreciate that people get recognized for this work, although that’s not why I do it.”
Hoagland serves in many roles these days, including the last nine years as USBC’s lane pattern development team leader in charge of the creation and implementation of lane patterns for all USBC events.
He also is the owner of H2M Management, which runs about a dozen college bowling tournaments per year, including the Hoosier Classic.
