4-20 takes top spot in fall play
POOL LEAGUE
In the third week of the LW Pool League, the first-place Fantastics edged out Hot Sticks by a 7-6 score. Rusty Aquino of the Fantastics won four of his seven matches, including both of his singles matches in eight-ball and nine-ball. The tightly contested match lasted long after all the other teams had finished, but their slim margin of victory wasn’t enough to keep the Fantastics in the top spot.
The team 4-20 beat Ace in the Hole 11-2 and moved into first place by two games. Gary Monahan won all seven of his games, and teammate Bob Barnum won six. A very good player, Barnum rarely misses an easy shot or fails to play position for the next shot. Pot Luck beat Go for Broke 10-3 and now sits in third place, only three games out of first. Paul Snellenberger won five games, including both of his singles.
The Favorites won 9-3 over Break’em and Make’em. Dave Silva of the Favorites won six games, dropping only an eightball doubles match.
The next non-league event will be a 369 doubles tournament in Clubhouse 2 on Oct. 20 at 6:15 p.m. Anyone wanting to play should reserve a spot by contacting Eunis “Wildfire!” Christensen at cashfit8@icloud.com or (562) 879-1954. It’s $3 for club members and $5 for non-club residents.
