Remind SD that there is a streak that needs to be broken..........

Click to expand...

Yea but that will be a tough task!! The first set in the finals starts out like this:

Larry wins the flip and runs 5.

Then Shannon runs 5. Breaking next rack and scratches.

They trade racks back and forth- score 7-7 then 8-8 Larry wins on the hill.

Off to the second set..... they both are playing well!! Larry is trying for a three-peat while Shannon wants to win the season finale!!

Larry Nevel is our winner!! Three tourneys in a row!! WOW!!!! He is on fire!! The score of the second set was 9-7. It was an exciting match to watch. Our season finale for the tour is now over! It has been a great year and we can't wait for '08!! There are bigger and better things to come for next year- so stay tuned and look for details here on AZ Billiards for our schedule of events!!


We want to give a big THANK YOU to the room owners who were very happy with the event and we will definitely be back here sometime in the early part of 2008.


Robbie Croft was the winner of the Nick Varner Cue raffle. He was so excited because it was a Christmas present for his 10 year old son.
On Saturday night we had another Nick Varner cue raffle and Billy Mozingo was the winner of that. Congrats to them both!
