Harrison Specters star Sydney S. goes third today, using the red cue in 12-ball. Sydney S. kept a clean performance and ended in 22 shots. Modernistic Union captain Ms. Puppy will try 13-ball with the silver cue.

The second group kicks off with Freedom Cascades veteran Roxy shooting 8-ball with the silver cue. Roxy was better at keeping things clean with her shooting, ending the game in 19 shots and no errors. Eastside Sharks rookie Maison draws in for 12-ball with the blue cue.

Ice Cream made a pair on the break and finished with 2 shots as she converted a 1-9 combination to the top left to end the clean game. More 9-ball follows as Pacific Volcanoes veteran Cowzart plays with the green cue. Cowzart didn't have an amazing game, his 14 shots and no errors representing a fairly standard effort.
Commerce Tradewinds rising star Solaris plays 9-ball with the silver cue. Solaris struggled early and ended up with 16 shots and no errors. The Union captain Ms. Puppy gets a second game today, playing Rotation with the purple cue. Ms. Puppy's struggles persisted after a good start, giving her four errors and 29 shots.

Maplewood Lumberjacks rookie Marissa shoots 12-ball with the silver cue next. Marissa fired off 21 shots and two errors, nipping a potential long chase quickly at the end. Taking us into the lunch break, Whitewater Shores veteran Marsell plays 13-ball with the green cue. Marsell dominated with just 17 shots and no errors, a cautious finish only slightly slowing him down.
After the break, Royal Crowns captain Kayla lines up 10-ball with the silver cue. Kayla was a little too slow in her game, ending at 18 shots with no errors. More 10-ball follows in today's 17th game as Southridge Defenders veteran Wario plays in the event with the green cue. Wario notched 25 shots and three errors in a challenging game. Queens Flames newcomer Pauline draws in for 8-ball with the red cue. Pauline was done in by her own shakiness, taking eight errors as she illegally potted the 8 in an already sloppy effort. She ended in 31 shots. Following that, Web City Spiders captain Jack plays 13-ball with the red cue. Jack nearly had a great game, but a slow finish with two errors put him at 21 shots for a merely good effort. North Modernistic Nighthawks newcomer Gizmo shoots 12-ball with the red cue here. Gizmo was very sharp, taking one error and still finishing in 15 shots as he got successfully creative.
The fifth batch gets going with Terrace City Knights captain Kiwi shooting 15-ball with the purple cue. Kiwi looked good early on, then faded slightly with 27 shots and one error. The red cue is back when Royal Crowns veteran Brownie plays 13-ball. Brownie had a solid performance, taking no errors in her 24 shots. Oceanside Waves enforcer Josie shoots 7-ball with the silver cue for her season debut. Josie had a great break, but slow play after that set her off at 10 shots and no errors. The silver cue stays up as Lighton Prestige rookie Angelica plays Rotation. Angelica was very strong this time, attacking with precision but still taking three errors in 23 shots. The 25th game today is Waluigi of the Web City Spiders playing 12-ball with the blue cue. Waluigi was locked in from the start, finishing in 15 error-free shots.
Group six opens with Pronger Tridents star Spot shooting 12-ball with the silver cue. Spot's only blemish was a scratch on the break that also saw three balls fall. He ended in 20 shots with just the lone error. The Crowns' Brownie is back for a second game today, using the purple cue in Rotation. Brownie didn't find much success after a bad break, taking four errors to finish in 29 shots. Swordpoint Blades veteran Bandit is up for 9-ball with the silver cue. Bandit made three balls on the break, took an ugly double-error, and still finished in 12 shots. The 29th game today belongs to the Central Warriors' Noelle, who will use the silver cue in 10-ball. Noelle didn't falter, clearing the table in 14 shots with no errors. The silver cue will wrap up this group in 13-ball at the hands of Stonebridge Wolves captain Juno. Some positional struggles led to Juno taking two errors among her 24 shots.
Stonebridge Wolves teammate Wild Thing steps in for Rotation with the purple cue. Wild Thing rattled off 22 shots with two errors in a very quick performance. Archtown Arrows captain Sally is the second to finish qualifying, playing Accuracy with the blue cue. Sally had an error and 18 shots in the game, giving her totals of 163 shots and 10 errors overall. The red cue draws in for the 33rd game today, which sees Westside Rockers veteran Chimpy play 8-ball. Chimpy zipped through the game in 16 shots without an error. The Blades' Bandit gets a second game today, shooting 10-ball with the green cue. Bandit's game was a bit of a disaster, with four errors and 19 shots. Another Blade, the rookie Esmeralda, goes next in 9-ball with the silver cue. Esmeralda held her own fairly well with 14 shots and no errors in the game.
Harrison Specters newcomer Dewey starts group eight with the green cue in hand for 13-ball. Dewey took a strong approach to end in 19 shots with only one error for a scratch. Commerce Tradewinds veteran Niki keeps the green cue up for 8-ball in today's 37th game. Niki was in total control, wiping stripes quickly and then finishing in 17 shots with no errors. Central Warriors captain Twilight is ready to go in 12-ball with the silver cue. Twilight had some positioning problems late in her game, taking one error before ending at 25 shots. Infinity Torpedoes veteran Shelley will try 10-ball with the purple cue. Shelley struggled early, taking three errors before settling in to end on 19 shots. Ending the group, Oceanside Waves captain Snuggle shoots 10-ball with the red cue. Snuggle had an early error for an uncalled shot, but then faded late to 17 shots.
The 41st player drawn today is Todavía Stills newcomer Pedey, who uses the blue cue in 9-ball. Pedey took one error for a scratch, but he was otherwise strong with 11 shots in the game. Next up, Midland Predators veteran Americus shoots 12-ball with the red cue. Americus took only 15 shots in the game, a clean performance with masterful execution. Another Predators, the newcomer Chicky Phil, goes in 13-ball with the green cue. Chicky Phil struggled near the end, adding three errors as he couldn't get a good angle. He finished with 28 shots. Back in 12-ball, Pacific Volcanoes captain Starlight uses the red cue. Starlight had good composure despite taking one error, finishing the effort in 17 shots. Archtown Arrows veteran Hoppy closes the group with 9-ball and the purple cue. A lack of consistency left Hoppy with 17 shots and one error.
Today's last group begins with North Modernistic Nighthawks captain Peach shooting 12-ball with the purple cue. Peach had trouble with positioning at the end, her 26 shots laced with three errors. Golden Pilots veteran Max is next with the green cue up in 13-ball. Max wasn't bothered by a couple of errors as he closed down the game in 20 shots. Prestige rookie Angelica gets a second game today, using the red cue in 15-ball. Angelica navigated the rack well early on despite picking up three errors, but a late fade put her at 26 shots. Atlantic Pirates captain Delila draws in for 13-ball with the silver cue. Delila crowded the middle of the table and then turned on the pinpoint precision, firing the rack down in 20 shots with no errors. More 13-ball ends the day as the Todavía Stills' Bells plays in the event with the purple cue. Bells did well to get the 8 off the table legally, but a slow finish and a late error gave her 24 shots.
We'll go again tomorrow, which sees the league switch from 10-ball to 12-ball majority mid-day.
