We're onto the last day of 12-ball majority here, which will begin with...
North Modernistic Nighthawks captain Peach shooting Rotation with the blue cue. Peach was on a good run until the 14, which created a late chase that ballooned her score to 27 shots with two errors. Golden Pilots captain Valencia also shoots Rotation with the blue cue. Valencia's hot start cooled a bit after her lone error, but she still ended in 24 shots. Terrace City Knights third-year Quincy tries 10-ball with the purple cue. Quincy showed a lot of skill with a ball on the break and a 4-10 combination to the bottom left to end in 3 shots with no errors. Eastside Sharks captain Nightfur gets the fourth game today to play 10-ball with the green cue. Nightfur had some good play early, but faltered late to end with 18 shots and no errors. Pronger Tridents star Spot ends the group with Rotation and the blue cue. Spot skidded early with three errors and had to surge just to end on a mediocre 31 shots.
Modernistic Union veteran Daisy is ready to roll in 13-ball with the blue cue. Daisy had a solid performance, taking just one error in 22 shots to finish the game. Maplewood Lumberjacks star Whiskers is up for 12-ball with the red cue. Whiskers ended at 24 shots and no errors after a less-than-graceful approach to the final two balls. Midland Predators captain Shawn will be the 10th player done with qualifying when he plays Accuracy with the blue cue. Shawn was mostly good, ending in 18 shots with one error. His totals were 189 shots and 19 errors, a poor overall effort. After that, Pacific Volcanoes veteran Ms. Kitty shoots 12-ball with the green cue. Ms. Kitty posted 22 shots and one error in this game, taking her time on a difficult last ball. Leading into the break, Viewpoint Sound Meteors star Frosty shoots 12-ball with the purple cue. Frosty pounded things down in 19 shots, suffering only one error for a scratch.
After the lunch break, Maplewood Lumberjacks rookie Marissa plays Rotation with the silver cue. Marissa had a wretched start to the game, but salvaged 34 shots with five errors. Atlantic Pirates newcomer Dusky is ready to try 8-ball with the purple cue. Dusky had some troubles with control on her shots, ending up with 24 shots and one error after a slow finish. Central Warriors veteran Noelle goes 13th today, using the blue cue in 12-ball. Noelle had a slow start and didn't get much better before ending at 25 shots with one error. Golden Pilots veteran Max is up next for Rotation with the purple cue. Max came close to a good performance, but a terrible finish left him at 32 shots and four errors. Queens Flames hotshot Briana ends the group with 13-ball and the silver cue. Briana sank the 8 illegally early on for five errors, but she still ended in only 23 shots.
The fourth group opens with Cheddar of the North Modernistic Nighthawks playing 10-ball with the silver cue. Cheddar had a smooth start to the game, then a slight step back to finish in 14 shots with one error. Everton Eagles veteran Puff III plays 15-ball with the purple cue. Puff III was crisp on most shots, good enough for 25 shots and three errors. Royal Crowns captain Kayla keeps the purple cue up for 13-ball. Kayla had no positioning on her final balls, pushing her to 27 shots and four errors to erase a good start. The Victoria Spurs' Strawberry draws in for 10-ball with the red cue. Strawberry was a little reckless with three errors mixed into 18 shots. Rounding out the group, Spurs captain Spice is the final player to make a season debut, shooting 7-ball with the purple cue. Spice pulled off a strong play with 8 shots and no errors in her long anticipated season opener.
Group five starts with Harrison Specters star Sydney S. playing Rotation with the green cue. Sydney S. made some sacrifices with three errors, but still finished in 22 shots. Diamond Gems newcomer Salmo is ready to go in 10-ball with the blue cue for today's 22nd game. Salmo wavered too much between good and bad, ending in 18 shots with two errors. Pacific Volcanoes captain Starlight follows with 15-ball and the silver cue. Starlight put the 15 near the bottom left early in the game, then finished with 7 shots and no errors with a 3-8-15 combination. More 15-ball is next with Web City Spiders captain Jack using the purple cue in the event. Jack took his time in places, ending with 25 shots and only one error in a solid outing. The Nighthawks' Cheddar is back for a second game today, using the green cue in 12-ball. Cheddar had an awful start, and four of her five errors were for illegally potted balls. She ended the game in 29 shots.
Commerce Tradewinds youngster Rosemary ends her qualifying 11th by speed when she plays Accuracy with the purple cue. Rosemary didn't struggle, ending in 19 shots in the game for totals of 175 shots and 10 errors. The Warriors' Noelle takes her second game today in 13-ball with the red cue. Noelle was absolutely dominant with 19 shots and no errors in this appearance. Infinity Torpedoes newcomer Fuchsia is set to play the purple cue's last 8-ball game in qualifying. Fuchsia cleared the table in 20 shots without an error. The Knights' Quincy gets his second game and the league's 29th of the day, shooting 12-ball with the red cue. Quincy played well with 21 shots and two errors in his game, showing decent control. At the back of the batch, Whitewater Shores mainstay Twinkie III plays 15-ball with the blue cue. Twinkie III was probably a little lucky to end in 23 shots with only two errors, but the plays kept going in her favor.
The seventh set is led by Maplewood Lumberjacks newcomer Vladimir, who shoots 13-ball with the red cue. Vladimir fast-tracked his performance, putting a solid, a stripe, and the 8 in the bottom left for 0 shots and zero errors. Golden Pilots star Dusty will keep the red cue active for 15-ball. Dusty also put up a stunning result with 5 shots and no errors, a wild shot on the 3 bumping the 15 into the top side while narrowly avoiding a scratch at the bottom left. Whitewater Shores veteran Katharine jumps in for 12-ball with the purple cue. Katharine looked strong in her appearance, closing in 17 shots with one error. Next up, Todavía Stills veteran Bells shoots Rotation with the silver cue. Bells had some good plays, but six errors put her at 30 shots when it was over. Pronger Tridents newcomer Prism will step up for 13-ball with the blue cue. Prism made quick work of this game, needing only 21 shots without an error to finish.
Pearl Surfers co-captain Watermelon is set to play 10-ball with the blue cue. Watermelon nearly ended it on a 6-10 combination, but she scratched and had to finish at 18 shots with two errors. The 37th game today belongs to Stonebridge Wolves newcomer Kirstin, who shoots 9-ball with the green cue. Kirstin popped the 9 to the bottom left on the break, taking 0 shots and zero errors on the scoreboard. Atlantic Pirates stalwart Steven is next up for 10-ball with the silver cue. Steven's initial miss on the 2 drove the 10 to the edge of the bottom right, where a well-placed 2-10 bank combination ended his game in 5 shots and no errors. The Warriors' Noelle is onto her third game of the day, playing Rotation with the green cue. Noelle had another impressive turn, ending in 21 shots with just one error after a hot start. Wrapping up the group, Harrison Specters veteran Blizzard plays 13-ball with the purple cue. Blizzard had a commanding start, and just one error occurred as she finished the rack in 20 shots.
The ninth batch gets going when Boston Swifts mainstay Sweetheart shoots 9-ball with the green cue. Sweetheart made a ball on the break, and each of her 3 subsequent shots were strong, ending the game on a 3-9 combination to the bottom left to close an error-free outing. Southridge Defenders captain Stephanie is the 12th player to finish qualifying, shooting Accuracy with the silver cue. Stephanie refused to miss this time, clearing the table in only 14 shots. Overall, she had 180 shots and 11 errors during qualifying. The silver cue stays in action with Capital City Sharpshooters newcomer Paps playing 13-ball. Paps had a strong outing, needing only 21 shots to finish the game. Lighton Prestige veteran Shiny draws in for 12-ball with the purple cue. Shiny nearly had a historically good game, but three errors and a pitiful showing on the last ball bumped her up to 23 shots. Swordpoint Blades veteran Bandit will also use the purple cue for 12-ball. Bandit wasn't as flashy early on, but a stable finish at 18 shots with one error for a late scratch looked good on his card.
The Pilots' Max goes 46th today, his second game of the day being 15-ball with the silver cue. Max had an acceptable start, then rocketed a 6-15 combination to the top left, with a deflection for the 11-7 combination at the bottom left. He ended with 12 shots and one error. Crowns captain Kayla will use the blue cue in her Rotation turn. Kayla rattled off just 20 shots with one error to complete the outing. Archtown Arrows veteran Hoppy comes aboard for 13-ball with the silver cue. Hoppy was pretty quick at first, then cautious to finish in 22 shots with no errors. Lighton Prestige veteran Citrus checks in for 15-ball with the green cue. Citrus had a bad start, but an early finish salvaged the game at 30 shots with four errors. Infinity Torpedoes veteran Shelley closes the day in 13-ball with the purple cue. Shelley had some good moments, but a slow finish put her at 25 shots with two errors.
The 12-ball majority era is over -- 13-ball is the hot zone beginning tomorrow.
