Buddy was bored one summer. He asked if he could go spend some time with his Uncle Chris in Louisiana. Chris shoots pool.
When Buddy returned home to Springfield, Ohio, he went to the bowling alley, but it was not the right place for him to hone his skills. But his Uncle James has a friend, Chad Bowling, who owns King of Billiards. Bowling has taken Buddy under his wing and introduced him to the billiards world.
Since entering the billiards circuit, Buddy has met John Morra, Dennis Hatch, and Roberto Gomez. And Buddy, who use to play soccer, but has been in billiards for just one year, is sponsored by Jacoby and he uses the company’s sticks.
Buddy practices pool 40 hours a week. He goes to practice right after school and helps out around the pool hall—cleaning up, being a runner, and emptying trash.
He use to think of going to the military after high school, but now he is considering going to college. The University of Akron has a billiards club.
Since Buddy has entered the circuit and playing in competitions all across the region and country, he has made friends in other states and enjoys seeing them at competitions.
He will enter and play tournaments until he turns 18, when by winning tournaments, he can qualify to turn professional.
