Nick Varner won the same tournament two years in a row. Two and half decades later, Max Eberle won that same tournament two years in a row. What other azbilliard member won that tournament?
 
Last year we had a moment when 3 winners of that were in the pool room. Max was one. Plus two women. I noticed and thought that was kind of cool. One of the women knocked me out of a little tournament last Sunday. They don’t post here tho so aren’t the answer to the question.
 
ACUI Collegiate. Going from memory, could be wrong. Nick was around 1968-9. That would make Max 1993-4.
Again, all from memory, so don’t shoot me if I’m wrong.

Sadly, the collegiate championship ended six years ago. Mark Wilson and Lindenwood had a pretty good run. He showed what could be done developing players if you put in the effort. The BEF Junior Nationals now have a division for college-age students but it seems to have little promotion.

Players from Linwood University, where Mark Wilson coached, won the collegiate championship the last six years it was held. Landon Shuffett won it two years in a row for Linwood University. But, it looks like the big stick played a decade earlier: Lars Vardaman won it three years in a row for Southern Illinois University–Edwardsville. Wow!

A belated congratulations to Bob Jewett playing out of UC Berkeley! Any other azbiliards winners? Sound your horn.
