Noteworthy events from 2023 Summer Week 02

Outstanding outing(s):

  1. There are still no perfect 80s this season for anybody.
  2. Julian F had his second consecutive 77.  The new player named Danny O also had a 77.
  3. Bill F and Jon W each shot a 74.

RAFFLE Status:

  1. Braxton L sank the 3-ball in the south side pocket on his Table 16 break shot.  That was, by the way, the first 9-ball runout raffle break shot ever on that table in this league.  His after-break shot was very impressive.  It was a nearly full table-length 1-6 combo into the SW corner.  He then dropped the 1-ball in the same corner and got hooked behind the Halloween twosome (the 5 and the 8).  Cashed out for one third of the available pot!
  2. Kevin C made the 4-ball on his table 11 break shot. Kevin’s after-break shot, like Braxton’s, was also a combo into the SW corner pocket. This difficulty was not full-table, but rather having to bridge up over an object ball.  That caused limited control of the cue-ball which was subsequently hooked behind the 9-ball.  Kevin cashed out for 2/9ths of the available pot.
  3. The remaining raffle pot rolls over to Week 03.

OTHER:

  1. Roster adjustments since the previous week:
    • Adran P joined A Fresh Start and dropped 65 points against the opposing team.
    • Keith G joined Should Be Out, but isn’t scheduled to play until next week.
  2. Only one team was missing a player, but it did not result in a decreased HCP, so there were no bonus points awarded this week.
  3. Two deadlines are forthcoming at 11pm on Week 03:
    • Filling in names for missing subs on the rosters.
    • Joining the already-invested 10 players in the Top-Shooter side-pot competition.  See rule 24-B for more details.
  4. An incredible quantity of 1960’s and 1970’s classic songs were played on this night.  Thank you Dave G (a.k.a., “The Goose”).
