After a rough day yesterday, the league is expected to have a quick hand if play is poor. Leading off...
Central Warriors rookie Andrew is the last to make his career debut, using the red cue in 7-ball. Andrew debuted as well as anyone could, making the 7 in the top side on the break to end with 0 shots and zero errors. The Atlantic Pirates' Isabella has the tough task of following that with the silver cue in 12-ball. Isabella made a ball on the break and didn't need much time after that to finish with 19 shots and no errors in a crisp performance. The Infinity Torpedoes' Fluffina has the blue cue in hand for 9-ball, the first of yesterday's players to reappear. Fluffina wasn't pleased with 15 shots in her game, but she had no errors and took a ball on the break as some peripheral positives. The fourth game of the day belongs to Frosty of the Viewpoint Sound Meteors, who will use the red cue in 8-ball. Frosty rattled off 19 shots without an error, although her empty break was a slight disappointment. Modernistic Union rookie Sydney C. plays 9-ball with the blue cue to end the group. Sydney C. had two early errors after an empty break, but a late five-ball run salvaged a score of 15 shots.
More 9-ball begins the second group with the Royal Crowns' Brownie using the red cue in the event. Brownie had some struggles after making a ball on the break, taking one error over a precarious 18 shots. Capital City Sharpshooters captain Chris plays 8-ball with the blue cue in the next game. Chris had one of the best performance of all time, making three balls on the break and adding an early double-pot that helped him finish with 12 shots and no errors. Following that, Everton Eagles star Puff III shoots 9-ball with the red cue. Puff III had nothing on the break and faced some difficult positions, but gracefully avoided errors in her 14 shots to clear the table. The red cue gets another crack at 9-ball with the Pacific Volcanoes' Ms. Kitty. The veteran was feeling her shots, pulling off a complex double-rail kick on the 2 before making a few more tough plays to end with 14 shots and a miracle of no errors. The tenth player drawn today is Golden Pilots legend Dusty, who plays 8-ball with the silver cue. Dusty had an empty break and two errors for scratches, but she managed to produce an average 24 shots for the game.
Group three begins with Princess' Viewpoint Sound Meteors debut in 7-ball with the red cue. Princess joined Andrew as the red cue's perfect 7-ball players, putting it in the bottom side while the 3 fell in the top left on the break as she scored 0 shots and zero errors. Another Meteor makes a season debut as Nibbles uses the silver cue for 7-ball. Nibbles had a little less fun, scratching on the break for his only error, but a 2-7 combination to the top right ended his turn at 6 shots. The run of debuts continue with Twinkie I of the Pacific Volcanoes using the red cue in 7-ball to start her season. Twinkie I had a ball on the break, but an early error pushed her up to 9 shots in a still-solid performance. Nicole of the Lighton Prestige gets the 14th game, using the blue cue in 9-ball. Nicole made two balls on a fierce break, and then needed only 2 shots to converted a three-rail bank 1-9 combination to the bottom side, taking no errors in the process. The Crowns' Brownie returns for her second game of the day, keeping the blue cue in action for 10-ball. Brownie had an empty break and two errors early in the game, but she stayed on course and finished with 15 shots in a good game.
Batch four sees the Harrison Specters' Rudolph using the blue cue for 9-ball at the front. Rudolph had a good break, but made a mess of the game with three errors and plenty more misses. He ended with 23 shots in an ugly performance marring today's strong play league-wide. The Pilots' Dusty returns for her second game today, using the red cue in 9-ball. Dusty left her appearance livid after recording a ball on the break but having five errors in 23 shots. Chicky Phil of the Web City Spiders will try to correct course, using the red cue in 8-ball. Chicky Phil managed to cool tensions, clearing off each suit and then the 8 in 17 shots without an error. Back in 9-ball, the Todavía Stills' Sierra uses the silver cue. Sierra rifled a ball in on the break, but took two errors early on before settling down to close at 12 shots. Maplewood Lumberjacks captain Diddley brings up the rear in this group, using the blue cue for 7-ball in his season debut. Diddley kept with the good debut theme, just dropping the 7 in the bottom side for 0 shots and zero errors, a common line in the event today.
Group five opens with the Queens Flames' Hannah using the blue cue in 9-ball. Hannah ended up taking two errors over 21 shots after suffering through clustering that prevented her from getting clear shots. The 22nd game of the day belongs to the Whitewater Shores' Marsell, who keeps the blue cue active in 12-ball. Marsell managed to keep away from errors after an empty break, working his way to a cautious 23 shots in a good game. The silver cue draws in as Harrison Specters captain Twinkie II plays 8-ball. Twinkie II supplied a mediocre break, but made it work out despite early struggles. She finished at 22 shots with one error for a scratch. Hughbert makes his pool debut for the Infinity Torpedoes, using the blue cue in 7-ball. Hughbert had a rough start with an empty break and two errors, and ended up at 13 shots for the game. Stinky of the Freedom Cascades brings the day to half-completion, his season debut coming with the red cue. Stinky made a ball on the break and kept a clean game, ending with 8 shots and no errors.
The sixth group starts as Jason V. of the Oceanside Waves plays 8-ball with the blue cue. Jason V. didn't get a ball on the break, but the distribution allowed him to clear the rack in 18 shots with no errors. Eastside Sharks veteran Gizmo joins the leading pace as he plays 12-ball with the red cue. Gizmo potted four balls on the break, but took a cautious and smart approach to game, with only one error over 19 shots by the end of the impressive turn. Tysini Hummingbirds trade acquisitions Vincent plays his first game for the team with the red cue in 7-ball. Vincent didn't get a ball on the break, and he took one error but finished with a good 10 shots. The Westside Rockers' Slinks follows suit, making her season debut with the red cue as well. Slinks broke the theme of breaks in the event today, but it didn't work out, as she had 12 shots and no errors in her game. Finishing off the bunch, Lighton Prestige captain Acorn will play his season debut with the red cue. Acorn fired off another unfortunately empty break, but the clever captain closed with 8 shots and no errors in an impressive outing.
The seventh group kicks off with Spot of the Pronger Tridents using the blue cue in 9-ball. Spot had a firm break, but ended up with two errors, one on each end of the game, and he ended up with 17 shots for the game, a tough total to take. Rosalina makes her Whitewater Shores pool debut in 7-ball with the silver cue. Rosalina couldn't get a ball down on the break, and she took an early error, but finished with 10 shots in a good outing. Freedom Cascades captain Jasmine takes the 33rd game of the day, shooting 8-ball with the blue cue. Jasmine couldn't lock her shots in very well, ending at 26 shots and an error despite making a ball on the break. Continuing along, the Boston Swifts' Puff II shots 8-ball with the blue cue too. Puff II did a bit better, going empty on the break and taking an error for a scratch but finishing at 21 shots. Rounding out the group, Chimpy makes his Westside Rockers debut with the red cue in 7-ball. Chimpy belted down two balls on the break and took one error in 8 shots, an energetic debut with his new team. The ball on the break validated the 7-ball data set in the continuing breaking impact research.
Group eight gets going with Maplewood Lumberjacks sophomore Summer shooting 9-ball with the silver cue. Summer saw a ball fall late on the break, and then avoided errors in 12 shots before deflecting the cue off the 5 to take the 9 at the top right. The 37th player drawn today is the Shores' Marsell, who becomes the new pace-setter as he uses the silver cue in the first league 13-ball game. Marsell had an unlucky potting of the 8, which stuck him with the five-error penalty. He ended up with 26 shots in total after potting two balls on the break. The Lumberjacks' Summer barely waited to come back, using the blue cue for 10-ball now. Summer had nothing on the break, and then proceeded to illegally pot the 10 twice among her five errors in 25 shots. The Shores' Marsell pushes the pace further, shooting Rotation with the blue cue. Marsell made a ball on the break and took two early errors before settling down to score 24 shots in a strong game. Wrapping up the group, the Southern Monarchs' Dominic appears with the red cue for 9-ball. Dominic couldn't get a clear shot after a poor break, ending with 22 shots and an error.
The ninth batch has the Diamond Gems' Katelynn playing 9-ball with the silver cue at the head. Katelynn had three balls down on the break, but still required 14 shots and a bit of luck to avoid errors in her game. More of the troublesome 9-ball is on the way as the Southridge Defenders' Stephanie appears in the event with the red cue. Stephanie potted a pair of balls on the break and closed with 15 shots and one error, frequently frustrated by seemingly impossible positioning. The blue cue will get a look in 9-ball too, as the Swordpoint Blades' Dreamy takes the 43rd game of the day. Dreamy made a ball on the break and played a smooth game from there with only 11 shots and no errors. The blue cue goes again in 9-ball as Todavía Stills captain Easter plays in the event. Easter had two balls on the break and only took one error in 12 shots for a good performance. The group is a 9-ball sweep, with the silver cue appearing for Avril of the Web City Spiders. Avril made a ball on the break and connected on a 1-9 combination to the bottom right to end at 1 shot and no errors.
The last group begins with the Southridge Defenders' captain Debby shooting 8-ball with the blue cue. Debby needed only 20 shots after potting two balls on the break, taking no errors in a strong turn. The blue cue remains in action in 8-ball as the Atlantic Pirates' Steven is next to play. Steven was a little weaker, going empty on the break but staying clear of errors in 22 shots. The Stonebridge Wolves' Cobalt has some repairs to do on his overall mark, playing 8-ball with the silver cue here. Cobalt needed 25 shots after an empty break and two errors, failing to fix his mistakes in form from his first appearance. The silver cue stays in action in the penultimate game, as the Southridge Defenders' Wario shoots 9-ball. Wario went from cold to hot almost instantly after his lone error, ending up with a strong 13 shots after converting the 7-9 combination to the bottom right. The day ends with a beginning, as the Pearl Surfers' Beth starts her season using the silver cue in 7-ball. Beth made a ball on the break but took two errors over 10 shots in a decent start.
That's all for pool today. We'll do one more day this week, following the first games of Premier Week 7.
