That wasn’t all the fun! 24 players competed in the 8-Ball Break &
Run Derby on Friday night too! Eric Nordstrom & Paul Sanborn tied
for the lead in the opening round with 29 points. Heading into the
2nd round there were now 16 players. Eric Nordstrom added 31 to his
score for 60 points to tie but Paul wasn’t so lucky scoring just 9
but still in the top 3 as no one scored closer than 34 total points.
Tying Eric at 60 was Steve Blackburn, who scored 38! The top 10
players advanced to the 3rd round and Eric got 30 to set a new
record for total points with 90! Also passing the old record was
Steve Blackburn who added 20 for a total score of 80! Chris Negrin
scored 19 for a total of 49 but Paul scored 12 this time for a total
score of 50 to barely make it to the top 3! In the final round the
points reset to zero and this time it was all Paul to win the derby!
Steve took 2nd with Eric finishing 3rd!
And last but not least there was the Wild Card Tournament! Larry,
Darryl & Darryl won the wild card the easy way – by showing up! They
were the only team that showed allowing them to take it uncontested.
Congratulations to Michael Russell, Dwayne Beagle & Michael Kerin!

went 6-0 before losing to DILLIGAF and finishing 7-2. They also had
the longest winning streak of the tournament and most overall wins!
DILLIGAF went 5-2 and lead all teams with a 69% win ratio and held
their opponents to an average score of just 43 points! Going
undefeated was Shoot the Moon and the Brady Bunch who got to meet up
on Sunday at 2 to battle it out on the winner’s side! Shoot the Moon
defeated DILLIGAF twice, the first time 55-21 with 3 10-0s holding
Jason to zero! Oscar Avila Sr was the tournament MVP going 15-1
while outscoring his opponents 157-42 for the Mixed Nuts! Cathy

participated in the second chance with Pete Williams, Harold Lyons &
Laura Boothroyd of Evil Ways defeating Curtis Neal, Joe Granillo &

DILLIGAF started off Sunday with 3 straight wins vs Tough Times,
Doc’s Gang and My Two Dads, winning each by more than 30 points to
close out the left side of the bracket and await the loser between
Shoot the Moon & the Brady Bunch. The Brady Bunch won it in 7 games
with a 20-4 run in games 6-7 to close it out 63-41. The loss by
Shoot the Moon set up a rematch against DILLIGAF. It was win or go
home. DILLIGAF came on strong taking the first round 30-18 but the
Moons went 40-10 to take a 58-40 lead with 2 games to go. Darren put
it away with a 10-1 against Steve to take a 68-41 lead and the win!

up another rematch! In the first round the Bradys took a 22-19 lead
with a pair of 10s. In the next round it was the Moons turn with a
23-19 run to take a 1 point lead going into the 3rd round for the 3x
Champs! In the 3rd round Anthony defeated Darren 10-7 to take back
the lead which set up Chris Miller to win it all with a 10-2 run vs
Phil Anderson and become the Spring 2014 AZPL State Champions!!!
Fall 2013
Two Lefts Make It Right
2 Lefts Make It
Right started at 7pm Saturday and started their run by facing off
against Chris Negrin’s other team, It’s Like a Nightmare, which it
probably was as Chris sat on the sidelines and watched his teammates
battle it out. Ryan Levengood hit an 8-ball break to propel 2 Lefts
to a 70-54 win. Their next match was against DILLIGAF. After going
down 34-21 after 4 games they went on a 40-10 run to win 61-44 in 8
games setting up their first of three games vs Tough Times. After
winning 5 out of 6 they had a 56-42 point advantage heading into the
third round. Tough Times went on a 30-12 run to win 69-68 straight
up and send them to the loser’s side to battle it out. Their next
match was a rematch against DILLIGAF. This time it came down to the
wire with a 68-66 nail-biter victory to take the top spot on the
losers side setting up a rematch vs Tough Times! In the first match
it was tied at 17 after 2 games before going on a 50-20 run to win
67-40 in 7 games. In the second match, not so much. Like the game
before it was tied at 17 after 2 games but this time it was Tough
Times as Terry Lemke hit an 8-ball break to get a 28-17 lead heading
into round two. After 6 games it was tied up at 54. Can’t get any
closer than that. After trading wins it was a 3-point spread with
one game to go. Win or lose. That simple. Scott Gwilliam took the
stage against Kevin Phillips and let out victorious yell after a
10-2 win to win the 32nd AZPL State Championship and
almost $1700!!!
Summer 2013
Evil Ways
Finishing in 2nd
place in their division they led off in the #7 spot and got a 72-46
win over Beach Patrol that finished in 7 games. Next up was the
team that took first place over them, Dazed & Confused. Curtis Neal
& Joe Granillo got a quick pair of wins before taking a 23-20 lead
after the first round. Pete started the 2nd round with a
win to give Evil Ways their first lead of the match. Dawn Atokuku
defeated Laura in a battle of MVPs 10-6 to give the Dazed the lead
but it wouldn’t hold as Harold defeated Curtis 10-1 to take a
6-point lead. Dazed pulled within 2 points but wouldn’t get closer
as Evil Ways would eventually win 69-65. Up next was the No 1 team
in the league, Doc’s Gang. They shut Doc’s Gang down, taking a
50-23 lead after 5 games. Doc Rogers snapped the streak with a 10-6
win over Pete but that would be it as Laura beat Doug Molhook 10-5
to take a 28-point lead after 7 games to finish the match and end
their night at 3-0. They would return on Sunday at 2pm well rested
but it wouldn’t get any easier as next up would be first place in
the East Valley, Team Ram Rod! Pete & Harold won the first two
before Team Ram Rod won the next 3 in a row to hold the lead through
6 games but by the 7th game Evil Ways took back the lead
and won the match 65-60! They now awaited the winner from the
loser’s side which would be Team Ram Rod, who just defeated Doc’s
Gang 73-69 in a 9-game nailbiter! In the first game Team Ram Rod’s
Brady Williams started off by running out on Pete but it was all
Evil Ways the rest of the way as they won the next 6 games in a row
to win 60-38 in 7 games and become AZPL State Champions!
Spring 2013
The El Diablos
I’m proud to
announce the winner of the 30th AZPL State Championship
held at Stinger’s Sports Bar is J.R. Jordan, Ryan Levengood & Scott
Gwilliam of The El Diablos from Jester’s Billiards! They tore
through five teams, losing only 9 games, in route to a 5-0 record,
winning $1500 along the way! Their first opponent was DRBJ. Ryan
led it off with his first of four 10-0s in the tournament, this one
Vs Rob Turner. J.R. & Scott followed that with a pair of wins to
take a 30-10 lead. In the second round DRBJ scratched out 19 points
with Rob winning his game but the Diablos scored 27 to take a 57-29
lead into the final round. Rob once again won his game but Ryan
scored his second 10-0 to complete the 30 to put away the match
after 8 games. The final score was 74-39.
In their second
match they faced off against Doc’s Gang, who went 13-1 this season.
After two games the score was 17-16 after trading wins but it was
all El Diablos after that as they rattled off four straight wins
including a 10-0 by Ryan Vs Doc Rogers and a 10-1 by Scott Vs Doug
Molhook to win the match in 6 games with a 57-28 victory.
Their third and
final match on Saturday was against Team Ram Rod, who had just gone
on a winning streak of their own. It started out the same with all
three winning their first games, taking a 30-16 lead into the 2nd
round. And they would need it as they were outscored 24-16 with
Brady Williams scoring a 10-0 against Scott to finish with a 46-40
lead. It would be the only round they lose throughout the
tournament. The teams scored 16-15 in the next two games giving The
El Diablos a 62-55 lead heading into the final game. Scott promptly
scored the necessary 3 to seal the deal to take the win in what
would be their closest match.
On Sunday The El
Diablos would return at 2pm to face off against Balls in Hand in
what would be the first of two matches against them. In the opening
round Pete Williams and Harold Lyons combined for a pair of wins to
take a 20-13 lead after two games but the Diablos won the next three
to take a 43-34 lead after five. They lost the next one but won the
next two by a score of 20-8 to finish the match after 8 games with a
69-52 score, sending Balls in Hand to face off against No Name.
After
watching their future opponents for the next two hours in a 66-62
nailbiter it was back to business! Ryan went on a 20-2 run Vs Pete
& Harold to lead the way as The El Diablos won 6 straight games to
win the match 60-28! Talk about a debut!
