Pool League

In the fourth round of the Leisure World Pool League Fall session on Oct. 3, The Renegades extended its league lead by defeating the Crack Shots 11-2. John Burns won six of his seven games, losing only a BC doubles match. Teammates Ren Villenueva and Steve Mitchell each won five games. The Ball Busters stayed close to the league leader by winning its 9-4 match against Any Hole Counts. The team is in second place, four games behind the Renegades. It was a team effort for the Ball Busters with their “A” player Kurt Bourhenne winning five and Bruce Petty and Zelma Berkenkamp each winning four.

Right on Cue won over the 3 Amigos 8-5. Tom Zimmerman won five games for Right on Cue, including four doubles matches. After a slow start the Bank Bandits won its third match in a row, but is still under 500. It edged the Rockin’ Rollers 8-5, with Connie Adkins winning five games. In the closest contest of the night, The Rustlers edged out Hard to Handle 7-6. Rusty Aquino, Gary Snow and Connie Terry each won four games for The Rustlers, who are only five games out of first place. While four or five games sounds like a big lead, if your team only wins two games, while another team only loses two games, the lead can quickly change hands.
