Short Bio:

Riley first picked up a Pickleball paddle about a year and a half ago (2018) and has loved the transition from his college tennis days! He referees college basketball, so he has a flexible schedule that allows him to play a lot of pickleball.  He would like to give a special shoutout to his sister Lindsey for staying by his side through his Pickleball journey, and his incredible sponsor Selkirk sport - thank you! His favorite Pickleball memory so far is achieving a triple crown earlier this year (2019) in a tournament outside of Portland, Oregon. His sister Lindsey also triple crowned which made it extra special!
