2026 - Week 4

Airways Golf League — Week 7 Recap: May 26, 2026

The fourth official week of the season

Two weeks ago, Logan Jarvis turned in the round of the official season — a 40 on the back nine with a birdie on 18. The thinking was: that's a peak. That's a once-a-season round. That's the kind of thing a player puts in a frame.

Then Tuesday happened. Eleven players took the field on the front nine, and Logan Jarvis decided to do it again.

Logan Jarvis: Back-to-Back Monsters

Jarvis shot 42 on the front nine — six over par — with a birdie on hole 5 (a 3 on a par 4) and pars on holes 1 and 9. He posted 13 Stableford points on a target of 8, picking up 5 bonus points. Two weeks ago: 14 points, 7 bonus, 40 strokes. This week: 13 points, 5 bonus, 42 strokes. Two consecutive weeks where the man broke the league.

His birdie on hole 5 deserves its own mention. The last front-nine birdie this league produced was Kevin Kearns's hole-9 conversion all the way back in Week 1 — six weeks ago, in the season's preseason opener. Since then, the front nine had been played three times by ten-plus golfers and produced zero birdies. Logan Jarvis ended that drought in roughly forty minutes of work.

Through four official weeks, Logan leads the league in bonus points with 13. The next closest are John Gallagher and Kevin Kearns at 4. Logan has more than three times the bonus points of anyone else in the league — through four rounds.

John Gallagher's Vindication Round

John Gallagher entered Tuesday having met his target just once in three official weeks — and only because that target had been lowered to 2. He came in with a target of 1.

He scored 5. Five bogeys (holes 2, 5, 7, 8, 9), a 50-stroke round (his lowest of the official season), and four bonus points. He's now tied for second on the official-season bonus-points list. After three weeks of single-digit struggles, John Gallagher finally got the round he'd been chasing.

The Two Kevins (Identical Twins on the Scorecard)

For the second time in three weeks, Kevin Gallagher and Kevin Kearns finished with identical Stableford totals — this time, 7 points apiece. Both met their targets (Kearns on the nose at 7, Gallagher one over at 6 + 1 bonus). They also tied for most pars on the day with two apiece — Kevin G. parred 5 and 7; Kevin K. parred 6 and 8. The Kevin synergy in this league continues to be uncanny.

The all-time par leaderboard is one of the tightest races in the league: Kevin Gallagher 13, Logan Jarvis 13, Kevin Kearns 12. Three players within a single par across seven weeks.

Dave Deyette Returns from a Back-Nine Slump

After two consecutive back-nine appearances yielded just 3 and 2 points (and zero bonus points), Dave Deyette got back to the front nine and got back to what works: bogey points. He posted 5 points on a target of 4 (one bonus) with bogey points on holes 1, 5, 7, 8, and 9. The man bogeyed his last three holes in a row to claim his first bonus point of the official season.

The Staircase Holds

Ted Cowles posted 4 points on a target of 3 — one bonus point, and his second straight bonus-point round. His official-season scoring line now reads: 4, off, 4, 4. He parred hole 1 to open his round, then immediately followed it with two of the worst holes on the night (a 7 on the par-4 second and an 8 on the par-4 third). But he picked up bogey points on 5 and 7 to make up for it. Ted has met his target in all three official rounds he's played.

Eight Targets Met

Eight of the eleven players who teed it up hit their targets — a clear season high. The previous best was six, set just one week ago. The front nine, which had been the league's death zone for much of the spring, turned out to be relatively manageable on Tuesday, with an average of 4.6 points scored per player. Beyond Logan, Kevin G., Kevin K., Deyette, Cowles, and John G., Len Stadnicki met his target of 3 right on the nose, and Tom Wieland did the same at 2. Only Bill Gallagher (3 on a 4), Joe Alvarez (1 on a 4), and Bill Oravec (1 on a 5) fell short.

Hole 5: From Trouble Hole to Birdie Hole

Hole 5 (par 4) deserves a quick mention. Logan's birdie there was the first the hole has surrendered all year. Kevin Gallagher also parred it, and seven other players bogeyed it for points. Out of eleven players, nine earned at least one point on hole 5.

Hole 3: The Tyrant Returns

Just when the field thought hole 3 might be softening — its previous front-nine visit had it playing to a 6.4 average with two bogeys, the gentlest it had been all year — the par 4 came roaring back. Tuesday's hole 3 averaged 7.2, with six players posting 8s (Cowles, Deyette, Bill G., Oravec, Stadnicki, and Kevin G.) and zero bogeys recorded. Across every front-nine visit this year, hole 3 has yielded exactly zero pars. It's the only hole on the course that hasn't surrendered at least one par yet — and it doesn't appear interested in starting now.

Hole 4 (par 5) wasn't far behind — five players made 8 or 9. Only Logan Jarvis (bogey 6) escaped without a triple or worse.

Where the Pars Came From

Eight pars on the night across six different holes:

• Hole 1: Ted Cowles, Logan Jarvis
• Hole 9: Logan Jarvis, Len Stadnicki
• Hole 5: Kevin Gallagher
• Hole 6: Kevin Kearns
• Hole 7: Kevin Gallagher
• Hole 8: Kevin Kearns

The Struggles

Joe Alvarez returned (and actually finished this time — credit where credit's due, given the rain ordeal of two weeks ago) but had a rough outing — 1 point on a target of 4, with seven holes of triples or worse and a single bogey on hole 5 his only payoff. Bill Oravec, in just his second official appearance of the season, posted 1 point on a target of 5, with a bogey on the par-4 sixth his only success. Bill Gallagher came up one short of his target of 4, after stringing together back-to-back target-met official weeks. Three doubles and two 8s on holes 3 and 4 made the round more difficult than it had to be.

By the Numbers

Eleven players, 1 birdie, 8 pars, 31 bogeys. Eight players met their targets — a season high. The season birdie count climbs to four, three of which now belong to Logan Jarvis.

Attendance Watch

Four players missed the night: Tom Confrey, Hermann Keilich, and Dave Zogbaum (still 0-for-4 in official weeks) plus Chris McKone, whose hot streak (5 points in each of his two prior official appearances) goes on pause. Chris will probably be back next week, presumably wondering why he picked this particular Tuesday to skip.

The front nine softened a little. The field showed up in force. Logan Jarvis turned in another round that probably doesn't make sense statistically. And John Gallagher finally got the breakthrough we've all been quietly rooting for.

On to Week 8.

2026 - Week 3

Airways Golf League — Week 6 Recap: May 19, 2026

The third official week of the season

Tuesday at Airways was supposed to be the third official week of the season. It ended up being something more than that: the night Logan Jarvis finally remembered he was a golfer.

Ten players took the field, sort of. Joe Alvarez technically showed up, played the par-3 tenth, started the eleventh, took one look at some rain clouds, and walked back to the clubhouse. He didn't leave — he hung around, dry and presumably comfortable, and eventually rejoined his group at hole 16 to ride along for the rest of the round without actually playing. The league recorded him as not played, because completing one hole and abandoning ship on the second is not, technically speaking, a round. The other nine players got rained on too. They also finished. Joe will get his own paragraph below; he earned it.

But first: Logan.

Logan Jarvis Posts the Round of the Season

Through five weeks, Logan Jarvis had been the league's most patient sufferer. The smooth swings and low raw scores were always there — 44, 50, 48, 47, 49 — and the targets, until recently, were always slightly too high. He had been collecting "missed target by one" finishes like trading cards.

This week, the dam broke.

Jarvis shot 40 — five over par on the back nine. He birdied hole 18 (3 on a par 4), parred 12, 15, 16, and 17, and added bogey points on 10 and 11. His scoring run from hole 12 onward: par, double, double, par, par, par, birdie. Four pars and a birdie in his last five holes — including a par on the par-5 sixteenth that had been the back nine's chamber of horrors. The doubles on 13 and 14 kept the round from being something truly absurd, but even with them, 40 strokes is the lowest raw score posted by anyone all season.

Final tally: 14 Stableford points on a target of 7. Seven bonus points — more than anyone has scored in a single week this season. He laps the field by three Stableford points. The birdie on 18 was the third of the entire season, and Jarvis's second.

Kevin Kearns Has Himself a Night Too

In any other week, Kearns would be the headliner. He shot 43, posted 11 Stableford points on a target of 7, and collected 4 bonus points. He parred holes 11, 14, and 15, and added five bogey points (holes 10, 12, 13, 17, and 18) for good measure. Three pars in a single round is something Kearns hadn't done yet this year. After three weeks in the wilderness (5, 4, 8 points), he's now strung together back-to-back target-met performances of 8 and 11. The Kearns from Week 1 is officially back.

Bill Gallagher Bounces All the Way Back

If you're charting Bill Gallagher's season, it looks like a roller-coaster designer drew it: 7, 6, 3, 1, 4, 7. After bottoming out at one point on May 5th, he's now strung together 4 and 7. This week was his best performance since Week 1: 7 points on a target of 4, three bonus points, and a par on hole 13 — historically one of the hardest par-3s to par all season. He bogeyed five holes (11, 12, 14, 15, 17) along the way. Bill Gallagher does not panic. Bill Gallagher just keeps showing up.

The Hole 11 Party

The par-5 eleventh gave up three pars in a single round — Kevin Gallagher, Kevin Kearns, and Chris McKone all walked off with 5s. Combined with Logan Jarvis's birdie on it back in Week 4, hole 11 has officially become the most welcoming par-5 on the course.

Kevin Gallagher's par was particularly elegant — he opened his round with a par on the par-3 tenth and followed it with a par on 11. Two pars to open. Then the course remembered who it was, and a 6 on 12 broke the streak.

Chris McKone Hits the Target Right on the Nose

McKone posted exactly 5 points on a target of 5 — his second consecutive week meeting his target after going 3, 5, 5 to start the season. His par on 11 was a highlight. An 8 on hole 12 and an 8 on hole 16 were less so. McKone is quietly putting together a consistent run.

The Other Targets Met

Ted Cowles continued his beautiful staircase — 0, 2, 3, 4, off last week, and now 4 again — with one bonus point. He parred hole 13 (the toughest par-3 to par on the course) for the second straight back-nine appearance. His sentence is "Ted parred a par-3" and the league still cannot quite believe it.

Tom Wieland posted 4 points on a target of 2 for two bonus points — his best week of the year and back-to-back target performances after going 2, 2, 0 to start. The Wieland of woe is having a moment.

The Joe Alvarez Situation

Joe Alvarez teed off on the par-3 tenth, posted a score, walked to the eleventh tee, started his second hole of the evening, noticed the weather had taken a turn from "fine" to "drizzly," and decided that was quite enough golf for one Tuesday. He walked back to the clubhouse, where he then waited around for several hours, eventually rejoining his playing partners at hole 16 — as a spectator. One hole completed. One round abandoned. One curious decision to return as a passenger.

To Joe's credit, it was raining. To everyone else's credit, they were also out there in the same rain, and they finished. The other nine players posted full nine-hole scorecards. Joe posted hole 10 and then half of hole 11 before retreating to the dry comfort of indoors. The league's official scoring system does not have a column for "left at the first sign of moisture and came back to walk the last three holes for company," but if it did, that's where Joe's name would be filed.

It is one thing to skip a round entirely. That's a choice we respect — many players have done it this season. It is another thing to show up, play one hole, abandon the second, and then come back later to be social. The league has notes. The league has questions. The league has reservations.

We will leave it at this: Joe, the rest of us got rained on too. We finished.

The Struggles

Len Stadnicki posted 1 point on a target of 3 — a bogey on 11 was his only point. After 2, 5, and now 1 across his three appearances, his scoring line reads like a heartbeat monitor. Dave Deyette had another rough back-nine outing, posting 2 points on a target of 4 — the second time the back nine has handed him a low number, after his 1-point Week 2. The season's bonus-points leader has now gone two appearances without one. John Gallagher rounded out the bottom with 1 point on a target of 2.

The Back Nine Has Found Its Heart

Three back-nine appearances this season, and the trajectory is unmistakable. Week 2: 5 pars, 0 birdies, 1 target met, average 3.1 points. Week 4: 6 pars, 1 birdie, 3 targets met, average 3.5 points. Week 6: 12 pars, 1 birdie, 6 targets met, average 5.5 points. The course either softened or the field finally figured it out. Either way, the back nine is no longer the haunted house it was in April.

Where the Pars Came From

Twelve pars on the night — a season high — distributed across eight different holes:

• Hole 11: Kevin Gallagher, Kevin Kearns, Chris McKone
• Hole 13: Ted Cowles, Bill Gallagher
• Hole 15: Logan Jarvis, Kevin Kearns
• Hole 10: Kevin Gallagher
• Hole 12: Logan Jarvis
• Hole 14: Kevin Kearns
• Hole 16: Logan Jarvis
• Hole 17: Logan Jarvis

Logan Jarvis led with four pars (plus a birdie). Kevin Kearns had three pars. Kevin Gallagher had two.

Through six weeks, the season par leaderboard now reads: Kevin Gallagher 11, Logan Jarvis 11, Kevin Kearns 10, then a sizable drop to Chris McKone at 4.

By the Numbers

Ten players showed up, nine actually finished, and the field collectively produced 1 birdie, 12 pars, and 27 bogeys. Six players met their targets — a season high. The season birdie count is now 3 (Kearns Week 1, Jarvis Week 4, Jarvis Week 6). Logan Jarvis is the new league birdie leader.

Four players missed the night entirely: Tom Confrey, Hermann Keilich, and Dave Zogbaum (none of whom have appeared this year) plus Bill Oravec, who hasn't been seen since Week 4 — the first official week of the season. Joe Alvarez gets his own category: present, briefly, then resting, then chaperoning.

The course softened. The field responded. The birdie tally finally clicked over. And Logan Jarvis turned in a round people will be talking about for the rest of the summer.

On to Week 7. With any luck, no precipitation.

2026 - Week 2

Airways Golf League — Week 5 Recap: May 12, 2026

The second official week of the season

If Week 4 was the back nine showing a little mercy, Week 5 was the front nine following suit. Eight golfers teed it up on Tuesday — the smallest field of the year — and they collectively did what no front-nine field had managed all season: they made the course look beatable.

Five of the eight players met their targets. That's the highest target-met rate of any week so far, by a wide margin. The front nine yielded seven pars (one more than the last visit), and hole 1 — which has tormented this league all year — gave up three pars in a single round. Still no birdies, but progress comes in many forms.

Kevin Kearns Hits the Bullseye

After three consecutive weeks of falling well short of high targets — 7 on 11, 5 on 9, 4 on 8 — Kevin Kearns came home with the round he'd been threatening to deliver: 8 points on a target of 8. Right on the nose. He shot 46, parred hole 1 to start, parred hole 7 in the middle, and collected bogey points on five other holes. No bonus points, but his first target met since Week 1 — and his clean exact-target performance won him the night.

Logan Jarvis: One Off Again

Logan Jarvis is now collecting "missed target by one" achievements like merit badges. After ten points to win last week, he posted seven this week on a target of eight — and would have hit it cleanly if hole 4 hadn't bitten him with a 9. He parred holes 5 and 7, picked up bogey points on holes 1, 2, and 9, and turned in another 49. Through five weeks, Jarvis has now missed his target by one stroke three times. Somewhere there's a single missing point with his name on it.

Len Stadnicki's Triumphant Return

Len Stadnicki — who had played exactly one of the previous four weeks — showed up with a target of just 3 and proceeded to post 5 points and 2 bonus points. He bogeyed holes 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Five bogey points in a row to close out the round. After a forgettable Week 2 cameo (2 points), this was the comeback Stadnicki needed. The lesson, as always: lower expectations are easier to exceed.

Joe Alvarez Returns from the Wilderness

Joe Alvarez hadn't been seen since Week 1. Four weeks of mystery, four weeks of speculation, four weeks of milk-carton jokes. He returned Tuesday and announced his presence by parring hole 1 — the same hole that had handed him a quadruple bogey 8 in his Week 1 appearance. He followed it with a bogey on 2, a bogey on 7, and a stack of doubles and triples elsewhere. Four points on a target of five — missed by one, but considering he opened with a par after a month off, we'll grade on a curve.

Bill Gallagher, John Gallagher, and Tom Wieland: All on Target

Three more players cleared their targets, helped along by some rationally-set numbers. Bill Gallagher posted 4 points on a target of 4 — four bogeys (holes 3, 5, 7, and 8), one point each, target met exactly. The man who started the season meeting his target twice in a row and then went three points and one point in successive weeks has officially stopped the bleeding.

John Gallagher hit his target of 2 with exactly 2 points (bogeys on 1 and 9). Tom Wieland posted 3 points on a target of 2 — two bogeys plus a bonus — for his first target met of the season after three weeks of single-digit struggles.

The Hole 1 Revival

Hole 1 has been one of the hardest holes on the course all season. Average score in Week 1: 6.4. Week 3: 5.9. Zero pars in either of those visits combined among the first nine attempts (Logan Jarvis parred it in Week 1 — the only one). This week: average 4.9, with three pars (Joe Alvarez, Kevin Gallagher, and Kevin Kearns). The hole is now solidly the easiest opener of the year. Whether that's because conditions softened or the field finally figured it out, we'll find out next time.

The Hole 3 Watch

Hole 3 — the unanimous tyrant of the course — gave up two bogeys this week (Bill Gallagher and Kevin Gallagher, both with 5s). That's the same number of bogeys it surrendered in the previous two front-nine weeks combined. The hole 3 average this week was 6.4, the lowest it's been all season. It's still the toughest hole on the course (no pars yet, ever), but Tuesday saw the smallest dose of carnage to date. No 8s. No 9s. Almost manageable.

Where the Pars Came From

Seven pars, spread across four holes:

• Hole 1: Joe Alvarez, Kevin Gallagher, Kevin Kearns
• Hole 5: Logan Jarvis
• Hole 6: Kevin Gallagher
• Hole 7: Logan Jarvis, Kevin Kearns

Kevin Gallagher (2 pars), Logan Jarvis (2), and Kevin Kearns (2) led the way. Through five weeks, Kevin G. now has 9 pars on the season — still leading the league, with Kearns at 7 and Jarvis at 5.

Kevin Gallagher's Quieter Week

Speaking of Kevin G. — after his four-pars-in-a-row legend last visit, he posted 6 points on a target of 8 this week. Two more pars (holes 1 and 6), a couple of bogeys, but a 7 on hole 2 and a 7 on hole 4 took the air out of the round. Still a solid 49 strokes, but the magic from two weeks ago stayed home.

The Birdie Drought Continues

Five weeks. Three hundred and forty-three holes played. Two birdies total. The league's birdie count remains a stubborn 2: Kevin Kearns on hole 9 in Week 1, Logan Jarvis on hole 11 last week. Hole 9, which yielded the only birdie of the season's opening week, surrendered zero pars and zero birdies this time around — just four bogeys and a bunch of doubles.

By the Numbers

8 players, 0 birdies, 7 pars, 25 bogeys. Five players met their targets (Kearns, Stadnicki, Bill Gallagher, John Gallagher, Wieland), three fell short — but all three of those (Jarvis, Alvarez, Kevin Gallagher) missed by just one or two points. The closest thing to a disappointing round was John Gallagher's bare-minimum 2 points, and even that hit the target.

Attendance Watch

Seven absent this week — the most all season. The usual long-term missing (Tom Confrey, Hermann Keilich, Dave Zogbaum) still haven't surfaced. Joining them this week: Ted Cowles (who had been on his beautiful staircase of improvement), Dave Deyette (the bonus-point leader!), Chris McKone, and Bill Oravec. The good news: Joe Alvarez and Len Stadnicki both returned. The bad news: four reliable regulars sat out.

If you're keeping track at home, that's six different players who have missed Week 5 specifically and three who haven't appeared at all this season. The league is starting to resemble a small reunion where you keep wondering who else is going to walk through the door.

On to Week 6.

2026 - Week 1

Airways Golf League — Week 4 Recap: May 5, 2026

The first official week of the season

After three weeks of preseason warm-ups, the season officially counts now. And on the same back nine that posted the league's most dismal numbers of the year just two weeks ago, eleven golfers showed up — including Len Stadnicki, who emerged from his three-week sabbatical — and turned in the best back-nine performance of the year. Six pars, one birdie, three target-beaters, and Logan Jarvis finally getting one in the win column.

The Headline: Logan Jarvis Wins the Night

Through three weeks Logan Jarvis had played the best ball-striking golf of anyone in the league — three rounds in the 44–50 range — and gotten almost nothing to show for it on the Stableford ledger. High target, brutal courses, no payoff. This week, with his target lowered to 9, Jarvis finally cashed in.

He started rough — a quadruple-bogey 7 on the par-3 tenth, the kind of opening hole that makes you check the parking lot to see if your car is still there. Then he stepped to the par-5 eleventh and made a 4. Birdie. Only the second birdie of the entire season, and the first by anyone other than Kevin Kearns. He followed that up with a par on 12, parred 16 as well, and added bogey points on 14 and 15.

Final tally: 10 points, target met, one bonus point, and a 47 — the lowest raw score of the night. After three weeks of looking like a man cursed by the golf gods, Jarvis finally got his round.

Chris McKone Joins the Target Club

Through three weeks Chris McKone had been the league's most consistent near-misser — 3, 5, and 5 on targets of 6, 6, and 6. This week, with his target trimmed to 5, he posted 6 points and picked up his first bonus point of the season. He parred both par 5s on the back (holes 11 and 16), added bogey points on 13 and 17, and finally got his name on the right side of the target column.

Ted Cowles Completes the Climb

If you like a comeback story, here you go. Ted Cowles's first four weeks: zero points, two points, three points, four points. A perfect staircase. This week he met his target of 4 right on the nose — and he did it by parring the two toughest par-3s on the course, hole 10 and hole 13. From "is Ted okay?" in Week 1 to "Ted just parred two par-3s in the same round" in Week 4. Welcome back.

The Birdie

Logan Jarvis's birdie on the par-5 eleventh is only the second birdie recorded all season, joining Kevin Kearns's birdie on hole 9 from Week 1. The league has now played 270 holes of golf and produced exactly two birdies. Park the celebration carts.

Hole 16: Redemption Arc

Two weeks ago, hole 16 was the villain of the back nine — a 7.5 stroke average with two 9s and not a par in sight. This week, the same hole gave up two pars (Logan Jarvis and Chris McKone), three bogeys, and played to a more humane 6.7. Still tough — Ted Cowles and Bill Gallagher each posted 9s — but a meaningful improvement.

Where the Pars Came From

Six pars on the night, distributed across five different holes. Logan Jarvis had three of them (12, 16, plus the birdie on 11), Chris McKone had two (11 and 16), and Ted Cowles had two (10 and 13). Hole 16 was the only hole to surrender multiple pars in the same round.

The Struggles

Tom Wieland posted the only zero of the night, on a target of 3. Ten holes worth of doubles, triples, and quads — not a single point gained. Bill Gallagher (1 point on a target of 6), John Gallagher (1 on a 4), and Len Stadnicki (1 on a 4) joined him in the single-digit basement. Stadnicki's return after missing two weeks was not exactly triumphant — his lone point came from a bogey on 11.

Bill Gallagher's quiet collapse continues. After meeting his target in Weeks 1 and 2, he's now posted 3 points and 1 point in successive weeks. The man who looked like a model of consistency three weeks ago is suddenly the man trying to find his swing.

The Kevins

Kevin Gallagher and Kevin Kearns both finished with 4 points on identical targets of 8 — and identical 50s on the scorecard. Kevin G. did most of his damage on the par-3s (bogey points on 10, 13, and 15) plus a bogey on 16. Kearns picked up four bogey points in the late stretch (13, 16, 17, 18). Both fell well short of their targets and will be hoping for kinder courses ahead.

The Hardest Hole of the Night

Hole 14 (par 4) gave up just two bogey points (Logan Jarvis and Bill Gallagher) and otherwise produced doubles or worse from everyone else, including 8s from Cowles, Oravec, and Wieland. Honorable mention to hole 12, which yielded only Logan Jarvis's par and otherwise served up a steady diet of 7s and 8s.

By the Numbers

11 players, 1 birdie, 6 pars, 22 bogeys. Three players met their targets (Jarvis, McKone, Cowles), eight fell short. Average score: 3.5 points. The season's birdie count climbs from one to two. Progress.

Attendance Watch

Four players remain absent: Tom Confrey, Hermann Keilich, and Dave Zogbaum still haven't been seen all year, and Joe Alvarez hasn't played since Week 1. Len Stadnicki broke his streak of absences with a return appearance, so consider that a partial victory.

On to Week 5, with the front nine — and hole 3 — waiting.
