Spring 2022 Hi-Lo

This past Saturday the Los Angeles Pool League held it's first qualifier tournament for this Summer's West Coast Challenge in San Francisco.

Thank you Jerry's Family Billiards for opening up early to host our Hi-Lo tournament. An even bigger thank you to Julian for setting up the bracket, keeping the tournament running efficiently and providing the pizzas that kept the players running too!!

18 players were paired based on their end of regular season averages into 9 Hi-Lo teams. There were a number of strong pairings due to the greater number of .500 and over averages that registered to play. Out of the 18 players, only 4 or 5 were under .500 average.  However, the Diamond tables were fast, the pockets tight.........all in all the tables were unforgiving.

At the end of the day, our 'King of the Hill' team, Jose Torres and Steve Duckman, defeated all their opponents to win 1st Place. They will represent Los Angeles in August at the West Coast Challenge.



Congratulations to our other top teams:
2nd Place- Rick Ramirez and Julian Auzenne
3rd Place-  Al Ballesteros and Patrick Yacoub
4th Place-  Bryan Haneiwich and Laurie Jow
