We had our first 9-ball event on the 9’ tables this Thursday night (WNT style with the 9 ball on the spot). I want to thank everyone who participated. Personally, this summer schedule (finale set for July 25th) will be a great new way to develop my 9 ball game back into competitive form. Shout out to Dave O’Keeffe, Braylon Jensen and Kindra Prestegard for staying up till 3am to watch to finals between me and JD. I won the hot seat but JD Prestegard proved to be deserving of 1st place by winning the one-race final by a score of 8-5. Nice win JD! Braylon Jensen took 3rd and Chris Hennen got 4th. See you on May 28th for the second event of the Summer series.
