2018 BCA Hall of Fame Veterans Committee Nominations
In a letter to the USBMA, I requested that Kim Davenport's name be considered for this prestigious honor. Here is a few of his accomplishments that I feel give him credence to receive this nomination.
Keep in mind, that most of Kim's 20 career was played at the height of pool in the United States. Most of the tournaments were large (many fields of 128) and usually had at least 7 or more current BCA Hall of Fame players in the field. Not to mention is was the beginning of the Filipino invasion.
