The Sunday semifinals of the winners’ side featured McCreesh defeating Keith McCready 9-6 and Brett Stottlemyer winning over Matt Krah. Last November’s event at Bill & Billies also featured these same two contestants in the hot seat match. The outcome was the same this time as McCreesh advanced with a 9-5 win. In the elimination bracket, Mike Davis was mounting a run with wins over Ryan, Nick Prinsloo, Jack Maginnis, Scott Haas, and McCready. A 7-6 safety battle over Krah, who settled for fourth place, set the stage for more of last November’s event. In a repeat performance, Stottlemyer defeated Davis 7-4 and then lost to the unstoppable McCreesh 9-6. McCreesh took home $1,500 for first place, with Stottlemyer earning $850 for his second-place finish. Twenty-three ladies signed up for the Sunday-only event. Malea Haacke, bolstered by her Saturday practice in the open division, came out firing and won her first two matches 7-0 and 7-1, respectively. After fighting off points list leader Gwen Dickert 7-4, Haacke convincingly defeated Kathy Friend 7-4 to take the hot seat. Amanda Smith took a 7-4 loss to Friend in stride and advanced in the elimination bracket with wins over Kathleen Lawless and Dickert. She gained her revenge over Friend with a 5-4 victory to take a shot at Haacke. The final was all Haacke as she confidently cruised to a 7-2 win for the tournament victory. First place paid $425, with $280 for second. Malea Haacke takes over the top of the women’s division points list with Mike Davis extending his lead in the open division. The Planet Pool 9-Ball Tour will be at Champions Billiards Café in Laurel, MD, on April 3-4 for the next event.
