Rachel Lang bounced back from an opening round loss and never looked back as she won the Garden State Pool Tour’s ladies event at Shooters Family Billiards on July 23rd.
Lang lost her first match of the day to Kris Kemp 5-3. Some players might have gotten discouraged with an opening round loss, but not Lang. “After losing my first match I was determined to play better and give it everything I had.” she said. Lang had wins over Renee Harris, Michelle Brotons and Heather Lewis before her rematch with Kemp on the one loss side. Lang took quick control of this match and ran off to a 6-2 win.
Back on the winner’s side, Jay Pass scored a hill-hill win over Ginny Lewis for the hot-seat. Lewis then dropped the semi-final match to Lang in another hill-hill battle.
The final match was an even 8-8, and Lang won that match 8-4 for first place.
The Garden State Pool Tour will be at Rockaway Billiards in Rockaway, New Jersey for their next event on August 6th – 7th.
