What an amazing run we had. So much has happened through the years and I wanted to send a shout out to all the past and present team members. Just a little recap of the team. The team was started in 2004 with just 6 players looking to get out for the night. The original team is pictured in the slides up top. It is the one with Chris, Skeeter, Glenn, Scooter, Marc and Jim. Since then there has been many versions of the team and players have come and gone. We have played many different divisions and two different leagues. Some team accomplishments are as follows:

Lets look at some detail:

 

Tap League Games won vs. Games lost performance sorted by win %. We do not have APA League history on this as we did not track it at that time.

To win a division MVP you take the handicap of all the players you beat and add that together to get the Pts. You then add that to your win percentage to get the total. So I used the same math for the history of the team. So the 6Ballstoomany career MVP's are as follows based on the current skill level now:

 

Skill level 2&3 - Glenn Stephens

Skill level 4&5 - Steve Parker

Skill level 6&7 - Scott Thomas

 

Name Match Won Match Lost Pts Win % MVP Score
Team Total 857 554 3286 60.65% 3346.65
Scott Thomas 171 81 765 67.86% 832.86

Johanna Lopez 15 7 28 68.18% 96.18
Joshua Hyer 7 4 29 63.64% 92.64

 

As you can see we have achieved some amazing things as a team. I think it is safe to say we far exceeded any of the original expectations. I want to thank all the players for all the memories. I wish all players who ever wore the 6Ballstoomany logo proudly all the best and hope we play again someday. I also want to say a special thank you to Jorge Lopez who is no longer with us. With out him I do not think the team would have ever started.

Happy 4th of July! On the team news we won another division 1st money round and again took 1st place trophy's. Jason Owens won the skill 2-3 MVP. Scott Thomas won the skill 6-7 MVP and the team MVP. Delana finished 2nd in the 4-5 MVP only one match out of 1st place. Play-off's were interesting with a close match in the 1st round not really played well by the team. Thanks to some tough play by Jason Rogers, Glenn Stephens and Chad Marshall we made it to the finals. In the finals the team rebounded dominating the finals with a 3-1 victory that was really never in question. Chris got the team in the lead with some great play and we never looked back. Jason Owens won the second match for the team beating one of the better 4's in the league 2-0 with some great defensive play. Scott Thomas wrapped up the 1st place trophy's for the team winning his match 5-1. We have a week off and then will start to prepare for the August 2nd Titleholders event. We will need to win our board at titleholder to keep our National Championship hopes alive.

It saddens me to say we lost a friend this week. Jorge Lopez touched our lives in many ways and we all need to remember times we had. If it was not for him many of us may never have met. Right click the link below to see a small video I put together to honor our friend and times our team had with him. Once you right click select save as and save it to a location on your computer. Go to that location and double click.

 

In Memory of Jorge Lopez

The team is tearing it up. This week we won 5-0 to remain in 1st place with 5 weeks remaining. Delana improved her chances at the 4 and 5's MVP by improving her record to 5-0 overall. Glenn is also undefeated at 4-0. Jason O. improved to 5-1 and stays alive for the 2 and 3's MVP. We increased a 4 point lead and are in great shape to return to the Titleholder later this year.

 

 

5/11/08

 

The team is in the final session to try and qualify for the 2008 National Championships. Currently we are in first place in our division. With six weeks to go in the season it is looking good that we will be playing in the next Titleholder event. Currently Delana and Glenn remain undefeated this season. More to come in the next couple weeks.

 

 

4/18/08

Well we did not win the Titleholders event. In the final game with everything tied up our opponent had an 8-ball break. You hate to lose that type of an event on an 8-ball break but that's the way the balls roll sometimes. We have been on a terror earning nine individual patches and one team patch in about a weeks time.

 

Chris - Two 8Ball break and run patches and a team 5-0

Chad - Break and run patch and a team 5-0

Jason R- Break and run patch and a team 5-0

John - Break and run patch and a team 5-0

Scott - 8Ball break patch, two rack-n-8-tor patches and a team 5-0

Glenn - Rack-n-8-tor patch and a team 5-0

Jason O. - Team 5-0

Delana - Team 5-0

 

I think we are on a mission now. I know I would not want to play us!

Well I have been slacking and not updating the team info. Not much going on right now. We are waiting to play in the Titleholders event in mid April. The top eight team will move on to the Masters, basically the state championship and a chance at Nationals. We started a new season and are just getting ready for the next round. More to come in a couple weeks.

 

 

 

3/08/2008

 

Well another great season comes to a close. The team took the 1st place money for the season and 1st place trophy's in the play-offs. Jason R. got the winning started with a 3-0 win. Glenn got the 2nd of the 3 needed wins and John closed out the night. John also earned a break and run patch in his match.

 

This season we accomplished:

1st place trophy

1st place money

1st place skill 6-7 MVP

2nd place skill 6-7 MVP

2nd place skill 4-5 MVP

Team average of 65% win percentage

 

 

Next up is the Titleholders and a chance to play in the Phoenix Masters.

 

 

 

2/24/2008

 

Another successful season comes to a close. The team took 1st place and is moving on to the Phoenix Titleholders event. We will play the next two weeks in trophy events but are really focused on the next tournament. Scott and Jason took 2nd place in there MVP standings. John won the 6-7 MVP with one loss all season. John was also picked by the team as the team MVP for his complete turn around from how he started with the team. He has been a positive addition to the team in more aspects than just strong play. Congrats John and don't forget the team MVP winner buy's the team a round!!!

 

Title Holder dates are 4/12 and 4/13 at Main Street Billiards.

 

 

 

1/27/08

With another week out of the way we still remain in 1st place. The team has a bye this week and will resume play in two weeks. We will need to hold on for three weeks to take 1st place for the division. John earned two patches last week clinching a 4-1 team victory over the 3rd place team. Glenn, Scott, Chad and John made up the four wins to keep the team in 1st place. John, Jason and Scott all have a chance at division MVP.

More in two weeks.

 

 

 

1/18/08

The team won again this week keeping us in first place. It is a tight race with 4 weeks of play left. Chad earned a rackin8tor patch while Jason, Scott and John remain in the running for division MVP's.

 

 

 

 

1/12/08

The team kicked it in high gear winning the last three weeks in a row. We topped it off with a 5-0 win last week to take over 1st place with 5 weeks to go. John earned a rackless patch and moved to 4-0 on the season. Jason, Scott and John are in the running for division MVP's. Patch pages are updated and I will update more as we near the end of the season.

 

 

12/16/07

Well the team is back into the regular season. We made it to the final round of Titleholders and now need to get some win's to get back. We are responding to the need with back to back 4-1 wins. We are back in the top three in the division and should only be two points out of 1st place. With a top three finish we will again qualify for the next Titleholder event. Chris has stepped up his game winning 4-0 for the last two weeks in a row
