The forty-second stop on the 2010-2011 Lucasi Hybrid All American Tour (produced by the American CueSports Alliance – ACS) was produced at Greenfields Pool & Sports Bar in Lakewood, CO, on Saturday, March 26. The $1,000 added event featured forty-two players in a double-elimination 8-ball format on 7-foot Dynamo bar boxes. Jeremy Fournier (Pueblo, CO) took down the A bracket with a 5-4 semifinals win over Melissa Little (Denver, CO) and a 5-4 finals win over Ruben Silva (Colorado Springs, CO).
On the B-side, Mark Haddad (Denver, CO) lost early to Bill Meacham (Colorado Springs, CO) 2-5, but recovered to eliminate Preston Hollis 5-2, Bobby Brown 5-0, Adrian Ayala 5-3, Rich Cunningham 5-3, Bill Skinner (Aurora, CO) 5-1, Frank Urbaniak (Colorado Springs, CO) 5-0, Melissa Little 5-4, Tony Piazza (Lakewood, CO) 5-3 and Ruben Silva (Colorado Springs, CO) 5-4, setting up a tourney finals versus undefeated Jeff Fournier. Hadda continued his hot hand to take the title over Fournier by a 5-1 margin!
By virtue of Ruben Silva being the highest-finishing ACS member in the event, he qualified for a free 8-Ball singles entry into the 2011 Lucasi Hybrid ACS Nationals at the Tropicana Las Vegas – courtesy of the ACS.
