When the 2nd Annual Ladies Delaware State Barbox Championships got underway on Saturday, June 24, which would be replete with rematches from the inaugural event last October, it appeared that the ladies took a little time to warm up. Of the eight opening-round matches (eight competitors were awarded byes), three went double hill, three almost went double hill (6-4) and the remaining two went 6-0 and 6-2. From that point, the eventual winner, Rachel Walters (one of the opening-round 6-4 winners) advanced to the hot seat match by chalking up a three-match, aggregate score of 18-2. The event’s defending champion and eventual runner-up, Tina Malm, who’d defeated Walters in a winners’ side quarterfinal of the inaugural event, was awarded one of the opening-round byes, opened with a 6-4 win and got into the hot seat match without giving up another rack. The event drew 24 entrants with Fargo Rates of 630 and under to Milford Billiards in Milford, DE.
