Tournament X Qualifiers - Day 8

Today, we move from 8-ball to 9-ball majority after the second group. We've already seen a fair amount of 9-ball played anyway. Today's action begins with...

Harrison Specters star Sydney S. playing 9-ball with the green cue. Sydney S. knocked down three on the break and needed just 7 shots without an error to finish a great game. Southern Monarchs captain Panda keeps the green cue up with 10-ball. Panda wasn't very assertive with his shots, needing 20 of them with two errors to complete the effort. Web City Spiders captain Jack is set to play 8-ball with the red cue. Jack managed 20 shots and no errors in a strong second appearance. Oceanside Waves rookie Megan plays 10-ball with the silver cue in today's fourth game. Megan had a bad appearance, taking too long to settle in and adding two errors among 24 shots. Boston Swifts veteran Sweetheart is set for her season debut in 7-ball with the blue cue. Sweetheart couldn't get her aim under control, taking 15 shots and no errors.

Tysini Hummingbirds veteran Charli does 10-ball with the silver cue. Charli did what she needed to early in the game, then closed at 13 shots and no errors. Lighton Prestige veteran Shiny draws in for 8-ball with the green cue. Shiny kept her cool despite a lack of big runs, ending in 20 shots and no errors. Vladimir of the Maplewood Lumberjacks goes eighth today, shooting 9-ball with the red cue. Vladimir put three down on the break, but he still struggled from the course of play, ending in 15 shots with one error. North Modernistic Nighthawks newcomer Gizmo plays 8-ball with the purple cue in the next game. Gizmo had a great start and a terrible finish, taking two late errors that pushed him up to 24 shots. Central Warriors newcomer Graham also uses the purple cue, this time in 12-ball. Graham started hot but took caution late, ending with 20 shots and no errors.

The third group gets going with Pronger Tridents newcomer Prism shooting 9-ball with the blue cue. Prism posted 13 shots and an error in this appearance, keeping a steady hand even after some tough shots. Stonebridge Wolves captain Juno goes 12th today, shooting 8-ball with the red cue. Juno was relentless to finish with 17 shots and no errors in a brilliant outing. Viewpoint Sound Meteors star Frosty takes on the blue cue for 9-ball.

Specters star Sydney S. gets a second appearance today, using the purple cue for 10-ball. Sydney S. had a couple of errors during the game, but she finished with 16 shots. The group closes with Terrace City Knights veteran Oreo playing 8-ball with the purple cue. Oreo's offense was a little too choppy, resulting in 24 error-free shots.

Commerce Tradewinds hotshot Solaris keeps the purple cue active for his 8-ball outing. Solaris showed strength early and played smart late to end with 19 shots and no errors. Southridge Defenders captain Stephanie steps up for 10-ball with the red cue. Stephanie locked in and fired 13 shots without an error for a strong appearance. More 10-ball awaits with Pacific Volcanoes veteran Twinkie I using the blue cue in the event. Twinkie I kept the league form good, playing to 12 shots despite an early error for missed contact. Infinity Torpedoes veteran Shelley keeps the blue cue up with her 9-ball qualifier. Shelley's form dropped off with the 4, but she kicked onto the 5-9 combination at the bottom right to end in 12 shots with no errors. The 20th player called today is Diamond Gems rookie Autumn, who plays 12-ball with the green cue. Autumn had three balls on the break, but one bad play led to three errors and 24 shots for the game.

Group five kicks off with Atlantic Pirates captain Delila playing 9-ball with the green cue. Delila posted 12 shots and one error in a relatively fast game. Stonebridge Wolves rookie Jane is ready for 9-ball with the silver cue. Jane couldn't keep a run going, ending up with 17 shots and no errors in a subpar game. Harrison Specters third-year Rudolph goes in 8-ball with the purple cue. Rudolph made one error for illegal contact, but the strongman still finished in 17 shots for an excellent game. Westside Rockers mainstay Goatee has the 24th game today, playing 12-ball with the silver cue. Goatee fell into the typical 12-ball trap, failing to position well at the sides, which pushed her to 28 shots and two errors. Capital City Sharpshooters mainstay Missy plays her season debut in 7-ball with the green cue. Missy started slow but recovered to end in 11 shots with one error for a scratch.

The Tridents' Prism gets a second game today, playing 10-ball with the silver cue. Prism was in trouble from the start and managed to limit the damage to 20 shots and one error. Kirstin's Stonebridge Wolves debut is next, as she uses the blue cue in 7-ball. Kirstin played fairly well despite a lackluster break, ending in 10 shots without an error. Freedom Cascades sophomore Andrew will play the 28th game today, using the silver cue for 8-ball. Andrew made a mess of his game with two of his three errors coming early. He then closed at 27 shots after a failed gamble for a double-pot. Infinity Torpedoes rookie Blaze goes next, doing 9-ball with the blue cue. Blaze left the 9 near the top left on the break, but he didn't pot it until he had a 5-9 combination to close with 14 shots and no errors. Southridge Defenders newcomer Lize closes the batch with 10-ball and the red cue. Lize couldn't get a good shot early, ending with 18 shots and one error after finishing with a 9-10 combination to the bottom left.

The seventh batch leads off with Queens Flames veteran Mario using the silver cue in 10-ball. Mario didn't impress, his cautious approach unraveled by three errors to push him to 18 shots. Freedom Cascades veteran Roxy is up for her season debut with the purple cue in 7-ball. Roxy scratched on the break but recovered well to finish in 8 shots. Whitewater Shores veteran Marsell goes 33rd today, playing 10-ball with the red cue. Marsell looked to be in control throughout the game, ending in 13 shots with no errors. Next up, Modernistic Union captain Ms. Puppy plays 9-ball with the purple cue. Ms. Puppy struggled initially, but her miss on the 5 turned into a combination to send the 9 to the top left for 11 shots and no errors. Archtown Arrows veteran Sleepy B. wraps up this group with the green cue in hand for 8-ball. Sleepy B. put the rack down in 16 shots and no errors, showing great confidence.

Fuchsia is ready to debut with the Infinity Torpedoes, using the purple cue for 7-ball. Fuchsia took an early error, her only one in 11 shots to complete her debut. Southern Monarchs rookie Molly goes 37th today, with the red cue in hand for 10-ball. Molly held her own after taking her lone error during a rough start. She closed the game with 16 shots. Freedom Cascades veteran Nikolai is up next, using the silver cue in 9-ball. Nikolai hammered shots left and right, ending with a 3-9 combination to the bottom left for a 7-shot and no errors game. After that, Maplewood Lumberjacks captain Diddley is ready for 8-ball with the green cue. Diddley had two balls on the break, allowing him to weather an error and still end at 16 shots. Tysini Hummingbirds newcomer Sugar brings up the rear in this group, playing 8-ball with the purple cue. Sugar was pretty strong after a shaky start, ending in 19 shots with one error for a scratch.

The ninth group starts with Eastside Sharks rookie Toki making his career debut in 7-ball with the green cue. Toki looked very strong with a ball on the break and just 6 shots with no errors to clear the rack. He'll immediately go again, playing 8-ball with the purple cue in his second career appearance. Toki didn't keep it clean this time, scratching on the break, but he finished in 16 shots. More 8-ball is up next as the Everton Eagles' Cleo plays with the blue cue in the event. Cleo wasn't quite as dominant, but no errors and 19 shots is a good mark to hit. Pearl Surfers veteran Wings plays 10-ball with the silver cue next. Wings wasn't at his best with a double-error near the start, but he settled in for 18 shots to end the game. The 45th player called today is TodavĂ­a Stills captain Easter, who will make her season debut in 7-ball with the purple cue. Easter missed once early but settled in for 8 shots and no errors in a strong outing.

The final group opens as Pronger Tridents veteran Potter does 8-ball with the green cue. Potter had a dud game with 30 shots and seven errors, in part because he illegally potted the 8. The Spiders captain Jack gets a second game today, using the purple cue in 9-ball. Jack had a fairly standard effort with 13 shots and no errors. The 48th game of the day is 9-ball with the silver cue by Wolves captain Juno, who also makes her second appearance today. Juno ripped a ball down on the break, then cleared the table in 10 shots without an error. Viewpoint Sound Meteors newcomer Cobalt is next, playing 8-ball with the blue cue. Cobalt struggled to get his offense situated throughout the game, ending at 26 shots and no errors despite some close calls. Modernistic Union veteran Puff I will end the day with the silver cue in 8-ball. Puff I kept it simple over 22 error-free shots, recording a good performance to end the week with.

We're done for the week, as hinted at above. We'll resume with weekend action on Saturday.
