Mosconi Cup week 2018

Cory makes the corner ball.

Styer plays safe on the one.

Kaci attempts a carom....miss

One ball down but safes on the 2 ball. Lock up safe ta boot. B-I-H

Corey leaves short on the 8 ball shape but Styer pockets the bank.

3-1 Europe
 
Neils pockets the 4. Shot on the one.

The 2 ball is tough but the rest is easy.

Europe played that rack well.

B&R

4-1
 
Kaci makes the 8 ball. 1 ball open, 2 ball clustered.

Niels cuts in the tricky 1 and cluster busts but leaves no shot on. Safety off the 2.

Corey thins the 2 ball accidentally while trying a hit and stick-mini masse'. The 2 ball sits very deep on the corner shelf and gets lucky safe.

Neils misses the 2 ball kick. BIH

USA runs out

4-3 Europe
 
yes, I also have enjoyed the play x play,
just jump in a dozen pages back or so.
not a bad read this year...
 
Awesome shot by Styer, pulling the 2 ball off the rail diagonally across the table to break up a cluster and leave a shot on the 3.

Unfortunately Deuel came up short on the 7 and the runout is not assured... but Styer makes a nice Z-type positional shot to save the day.
 
Corey has the corner ball wired.

One problem on the table, the 3/6 clustered.

Freaking Steyr comes with the shot! Pockets the 2 ball and come 8 feet for the cluster bustin shot of the day!

I think he said,"We will not go quietly into the night!" (or maybe not)

USA-USA-USA

4-4
 
Corey has left Tyler tougher than needed shots at least three times in this match.
 
Awesome shot by Styer, pulling the 2 ball off the rail diagonally across the table to break up a cluster and leave a shot on the 3.

Unfortunately Deuel came up short on the 7 and the runout is not assured... but Styer makes a nice Z-type positional shot to save the day.

Shot of the day.
 
Europe should be out of this rack after a good safety and missed USA jump shot... but hard to call this a sure thing with the hill-hill pressure.
 
Power break! Neils makes 2 balls, open table but tough shot on the 2 ball with shape to the 3.

Kaci and Niels talk it out. Kaci goes safe Niels wanted a different shot.

Steyr leaves a shot on the 2 ball after wielding the short stick.

Europe takes home the win

5-4
 
Yup, Europe pulls off the win after nearly blowing a 4-1 lead. They really needed that.
 
I'll take the day. Go USA!

Styer is almost robotic, great leaves, amazing bust on the 3.

Cory...I'll just say he's filling expectations.
 
Sky breaks first

1 and 2 ball down

The crowd is out of control. It is now ridiculous.

Safety battle

BIH to Sky!

Sky runs out

1-0
