- By Jamie Sibley:
We started by playing two games Friday night, continuing Saturday morning at 10am, until about 11:30 pm, when we finished the preliminaries. Sunday morning we played a four man round robin to decide the winners of the finals.
Early in the preliminaries, Johnny "Dozens" Shepherd made good play against Mercedes Gonzales, scoring 13 points for his best game. The next best contender against Mercedes was Sergio Hernandez scoring 16 for his only loss in the Prelims. This left the Clubs flight of five players ending with 1st Mercedes, 2nd Sergio Hernandez, 3rd Eric Salles, 4th Johnny Shepherd, 5th Dean Harrell with one game forfiet.
In the Hearts flight Jae Cho dominated the field with zero losses. Hugo Sanchez put up the best fight against Jae with 12 points, which was his only loss. There were many good matches including Chris O'Brien and Andy Janquitto, which could have gone either way near the end.
Preliminary Flights:
Finals were played as a 4 man round robin. Result was Jae Hyung Cho 1st, Mercedes Gonzales 2nd, Sergio Hernandez 3rd, Hugo Sanchez 4th.
Joe and Southside Billiards took good care of the players and provided plenty of space for uninterupted play.
