Zenith Skywatchers sophomore Omari is next with the red cue in hand for 9-ball.

The sixth set is led by Oceanside Waves sophomore Megan, who uses the purple cue in 13-ball. Megan made some noise early on with three balls on the break, but a cautious finish and one error put her at 24 shots. Harrison Specters newcomer Snuggle keeps the purple cue active in 12-ball. Snuggle wasted his positioning at one point, but recovered to end on 22 shots with only one error. Diamond Gems veteran Salmo is ready to go with the red cue in 13-ball.

Goatee skidded early and ended up with two errors in 21 shots. The 30th game of the day belongs to Apex Wonders captain Midnight, who uses the red cue in 10-ball. Midnight took one error for missed contact in the middle but cruised to 16 shots in the end.
Group seven begins with Modernistic Union newcomer Quincy using the red cue for 9-ball.

Blake had a strong outing with one error in 15 shots. Westside Rockers rookie Carly is 33rd to shoot today, using the silver cue in 12-ball. Carly made five balls on the break, and only one was illegal, which accounted for her lone error. It was a hard finish at the bottom side, leaving her with 23 shots in the end. Lighton Prestige captain Acorn will also use the silver cue as he attacks Rotation. Acorn had a lackluster start to the game with a couple of errors, but settled in for 27 shots at the end.

The eighth group gets going as Freedom Cascades veteran Andrew plays 12-ball with the purple cue. Andrew had a pair potted on the break and no errors over 19 shots for a good game. The 37th player called today is Victoria Spurs star Yekaterina, who introduces 15-ball with the silver cue. Yekaterina did good to get three balls down on the break, but ran streaky after that in 29 shots with one error. Queens Flames star Violetta goes next with the blue cue in 12-ball. Violetta got frustrated by her four errors, leading to a reckless finish at 23 shots. Moving along, Tysini Hummingbirds star Charli plays 12-ball with the green cue. Charli needed to split the rack after the break, but it worked out to set her on the path to 17 shots and no errors. More 12-ball finishes the group as Oceanside Waves captain Celestia uses the silver cue. Celestia had some trouble with her late plays, but ended on 22 shots with no errors.
Batch nine kicks off with Whitewater Shores captain Shaggy playing 13-ball with the purple cue. Shaggy kept it clean with no errors in 24 shots, a surprising score given how bad her positioning was. Stonebridge Wolves sophomore Jane is up for 13-ball with the silver cue in today's 42nd game. Jane couldn't get anything right, taking three errors and 30 shots to get through a brutal game. Swordpoint Blades veteran Stealth goes next, using the green cue for 9-ball. Stealth hunted the 9 the whole time, eventually finishing on 8 shots with a deflection off the 5 to the bottom left. He took one error. More 9-ball follows as Whitewater Shores star Katharine plays with the red cue. Katharine surged on offense with only 12 shots and no errors in her game. Wrapping up the group, Atlantic Pirates veteran Dusky keeps the red cue up in 13-ball. Dusky's pace was great early on, but the last ball gave her trouble to push her to 23 shots with one error.
The final group commences with Commerce Tradewinds newcomer Luigi also using the red cue in 13-ball. Luigi had better fortunes with positioning to finish his outing in 19 shots and one error. Southridge Defenders newcomer Roxy will try 13-ball with the purple cue next. Roxy had electric pace early on, but her positioning at the end led to one error and 21 shots. Royal Crowns rookie Kacey goes 48th today, bringing the red cue back in 13-ball. Kacey wasn't bad, but her inability to sink the 8 quickly led to three errors in 25 shots. Golden Pilots veteran Strut steps in with the green cue for 15-ball. Strut was sharp all the way through, and especially at the end to get to 23 shots with only one error. Central Warriors veteran Graham ends the day in 12-ball with the purple cue. Graham posted 19 shots and one error in a crisp finish to the day.
We're done for today, with the halfway mark officially occurring early tomorrow.
