Steve Crutchfield

      Having worked in a pool room his last two years of high school, Steve was already an accomplished player before entering Purdue University’s Indianapolis campus, where he won the campus 14.1 championship his freshman year. He won again his sophomore and junior years after transferring to Miami University of Ohio where he spent the next five years earning his B.S. and M.S. in physics. Having given up pool his senior year of college, Steve maintained his interest in spherical objects by lecturing at Henry Hudson CC in Dearborn, MI, the University of Virginia, and Miami University of Ohio o­n “Pool and Physics.” Steve has taught college physics as an adjunct professor. Returning to the game that he loves in 1998, Steve joined the APA 9-ball league, where he is a skill level 8 and was MVP in his district in 2001.
