Alex Bausch bounced back from a third place finish at the last Joss NE 9-Ball Tour stop and powered through a field of 53 players at Golden Cue Billiards in Albany, New York to earn his second career Joss Tour Title over the September 30th – October 1st weekend.
Bausch was looking pretty comfortable in early matches, with dominating wins over Brad Guthrie and Ron Casanzio, before dropping a hill-hill match to Canadian Vincent Beaurivage in the final round on Saturday.
Bausch was unstoppable on the left side of the board on Sunday, as he cruised through matches against Nick Coppola, Jordan Turner and Joe Darigis by a combined scores of 21-5. Next up for Bausch was a rematch with Beaurivage that went just as quickly as the other matches on Saturday, as Bausch earned his revenge with a 7-2 scoreline and then defeated Bucky Souvanthong 7-2 in the semi-final match.
The win over Souvanthong put Bausch in the finals against Canadian, Dan Hewitt. Bausch would have to win twice, and that was just what he did with a 9-6 win in the first set and a 7-4 win in the second.
Sunday’s second chance tournament saw Mike Salerno go undefeated with a 3-1 win over John Dennis for the hot-seat and a 3-0 win over Dennis in the first set of the finals.
