Day two of the Big Apple 9-Ball Classic is winding down at Master Billiards in Queens, NY.
Puerto Rican Star Alan Rolon remained undefeated with a 10-7 win over Danny Harriman on Friday night. Rolon will face Ralf Souquet on Saturday.

Owen trailed in his match against Francisco Bustamante 7-5, but came back to win the last five games for the 10-7 win. Basavich was up early in his match against Niels Feijen 5-2, but saw that lead slip away as Feijen got to the hill at 9-8. Basavich won the last two games to remain unbeaten.
On the one loss side, New York favorite George San Souci continued his hot play with a 10-1 win over Teddy Garrahan. San Souci will face Sean Morgan next. Morgan was the player that sent San Souci's fellow New Yorker Tony Robles to the one-loss side. Other players fighting through the one loss side include Jose Parica, Frankie Hernandez, Bustamante, Tony Crosby, Santos Sambajon and Earl Strickland.
