Noteworthy events from 2022 Spring Week 06

Outstanding outing(s):

  1. Teammates Esteban Q and David C each scored a perfect 80.
  2. Romy G shot a 76.
  3. Tom B from Never Say Never and Tim B each tallied 73.

RAFFLE Status:

  1. Jeff H was picked first for the 2nd consecutive week.  Again he had a marvelous break (on Table 04 this time) sinking both the 5-ball and 7-ball.  With cue-ball near the southwest corner, he overcut an ~82% table length shot on the 1-ball thereby missing the southeast corner.  You can’t have a birthday celebration every week!
  2. Romy G broke on Table 08.  Like Jeff, the 5-ball and 1-ball disappeared into pockets.
    • The 2-ball was the last ball in motion and slightly caromed off the rail at the eastern tip of the south side pocket.
    • A sliver of a window was available and the cue-ball was near the west of the opposite side pocket requiring a very thin cut.
    • Romy demonstrated his vision of the cue-ball path for setting up on the 3-ball into the northeast corner and then shot.
    • He sank the 2, but the cue-ball did not share his vision.  It caromed off the southeast rail and dropped cleanly into the northeast corner for a scratch.
  3. The entire raffle pot rolls over to Week 07.

OTHER:

  1. Eric C returned to league action after having missed several seasons. In his head-to-head match against Eric L, they split evenly 17 to 17.
  2. Matt S made his season debut with a 63 against Wolff Pack.
  3. This was the first week this season that all of the Little Man Syndrome regulars played together.
  4. There are two pairs of players with identical overall scores after having played all 6 weeks.
    • Ed S and Romy G each have a total of 398 points tied for 9th in the standings.  If you’re interested, Ed beat Romy both games they played against each other in Week 05.
    • Bob C and David G (the Goose) each have a total of 337 points tied for 44th.  If you’re interested, Bob beat David both games they played against each other in Week 01.
