On the A-side semifinals, Tim Barron (Bradenton, FL) dispatched Albert Baker 4-1 (Port Charlotte, FL), while Ken Coulter (Punta Gorda, FL) took out Bill Eisenhard (Bradenton, FL) 4-2.

The 2011-2012 Lucasi Hybrid Cues All American Tour – presented by the American CueSports Alliance (ACS) – showcased Stop #11 at Finish Line in Chenoa, IL, Saturday, November 12. The $500-added 8-ball tourney excluded “Masters”, drew 17 players and was played on 7-foot bar boxes.
Bob Nodine (Streator, IL) went to the hot seat with wins over friends Doug Williams (Pontiac, IL) 5-1 in the semi-final round of the winner’s bracket and Eric Naretto (Odell, IL) 5-1 in the finals. Mike Schultz (Champaign, IL) got hot on the one loss side after an early loss to Williams by stopping Chris Wilder (Chenoa, IL) at 7th-8th by a score of 4-1. He them got his revenge on Williams with a score of 4-0 to leave Williams at a tie for 5th-6th place. This would set a matchup between Schultz and Andy Hauschild (Shipman, IL) who was also hot after a first round loss to Dave Goode (Essex, Il). Hauschild defeated John Pokora (Springfield, IL) at 7th-8th by a score of 4-3. He then took down Jacob Varner (Rantoul, IL) at 5th-6th by outscoring him 4-2. This set up a great match between the two hot players of the night. Hauschild took the early lead, but Schultz was not going to let this get him down. He battled back and won the match 4-3, thus leaving Hauschild with a 4th place finish. Next up for Schultz was Naretto. Shultz continued to stay strong with the first 3 wins before Naretto could get started. However it was not enough to keep Schultz down. He won this set 4-2 dispatching Naretto at 3rd. This set up a title match that was not to be for Schultz. Bob Nodine was just a bit too much to handle on the night, as he defeated Schultz 5-0 to remain unbeaten for the title.
