On April 9, the PebbleCreek Billiards Club (PCBC) and Buckeye Legends (BL) faced off in a friendly but very competitive billiards showdown at PebbleCreek’s Salerno Billiards Room.

Two matches took place. In the first, the four players from each club faced off in one-on-one 8-ball games, each playing every opponent twice. The 32-game series saw BL win by the slimmest of margins with a score of 17 games to 15. Bill Frustaglia was PCBC’s standout player as he won five of his eight games.

The second match featured a ranked head-to-head format, pairing players based on number of wins for five games of 8-ball. Rene Lefebvre was PCBC’s best player here, as he won four of his five games. The 20-game series ended in a tie, with each club winning 10 games. A rematch is already in the works!
