Bullshooters was the place for the AWBT’s first stop of 2010! Sixteen women came out to play in this $300 added 9-ball event on 9’ tables!


The hot seat match was Susan Williams vs. Sara Miller. Susan won the hot seat by defeating Sara 7-4!

Sara went on to defeat Ashea Erdahl in the semi-final match with the score of 7-6 then came back to challenge Susan in the final match! Since this was a true double elimination format, Sara would have had to beat Susan twice. The match never made it to the 2nd set. It started with Sara winning the lag. Sara then made it to the hill first with the score 6-5. Susan won the next game which tied it up hill-hill. The last game went back and forth as both women missed some key shots. Sara missed a thin cut on the 8-ball which left Susan with a long 8-ball shot and the 9-ball at the other end of the table. Susan made the 8-ball with ease and left herself perfectly for the 9-ball and won the match! Congratulations to Sara Miller for 2nd place and congratulations to Susan Williams for the tournament victory!

Three women came back on Sunday to play in the free 2nd Chance tournament. Congratulations to Pearl Napa for winning the tournament and $40!

The AWBT held a raffle for a beautiful J. Pechauer custom cue valued at $500! The winner was Billie Grace Carman! Thanks to everyone for buying tickets and supporting the AWBT! Thanks to your efforts we raised $185 for the tour!
