LW Pool Club
On May 8, the LW Pool Club had its final regular season play for the American league. In the Money split its match with PJJ. Teams won six games each, and didn’t play the last game since it would have no bearing on the standings. In the Money’s Kurt Bourhenne had the most single wins for the A players on Monday with 21. Linda Patton of Right on Cue had the most single wins as a B with 18, and John Barth had 23 single wins as a C player.
Right on Cue won 11-2 over the Renegades, and also all six of its single matches. Linda Patton won six games. The Cue Crew edged the Rail Runners 7-6. Shery Wells had a big night winning six games and both of her single matches.
The final standings for Monday were In the Money with 107 wins and 87 losses; Right on Cue with 106 and 89; and PJJ with 103 and 91. In the playoffs, Right on Cue will play PJJ eight ball to two wins and then face the league leader, In the Money, in a two out of three match to meet the winner of the Wednesday league for the championship.
In the Wednesday league, the league-leading Favorites got off to a rocky start losing its first four games to Bank It. It came back to tie the match at 6-6, but lost the final eight ball game when Rusty Aquino made a long cut shot on the eighth ball. Paul Shellenberger won both his single matches for Bank It.
Triple Threat clinched third place by beating U3 9-4. Connie Terry and Russ Black scored five wins for Triple Threat.
The Ruffians led the league nearly all season long and only trailed the Favorites in the last week by two games. They came up big on the final day by beating Milly’s Boys 11-2. Ruffy Ramos and Glenn Everson both won all seven of their games for the Ruffians. Their only losses were two single matches won by Roy Mittlestead. The top single matches for Wednesday went to A player Dave Silva with 21 wins, B player Roy Mittlestead with 18 wins and C player Connie Adkins with 18 wins.
In the playoffs, second-place Favorites will meet third-place Triple Threat in eight ball, and the winner will go up against the first place Ruffians.
