The 37th stop on the 2009-2010 Lucasi Hybrid All American Tour (produced by the American CueSports Alliance – ACS) was hosted during the weekend of April 10-11 in Portland, OR, at Nite Hawk. The $1,500 added "Memorial 9-Ball Tournament" featured a full 48-player field (with an ample waiting list) in a double-elimination format on 8-foot bar boxes.
Stan Tourangeau ran undefeated to the hot seat, capping off his march with an A-side semifinals win over Pat Schumacher (Portland, OR) 9-4 and an A-side finals win over Jesse Allred (Medford, OR) 9-8. In the other A-side semis match, Allred had earlier defeated Bob Olsen (Portland, OR) 9-6.
On the B-side Scott Snyder (Vancouver, WA) and Bill Rosenberry (Portland, OR) tied for 7th place – victims of Bob Zack (Portland, OR) 9-6 and Eddie Mataya (Seattle, WA) 9-7 respectively. Both Mataya and Zack had their momentum upended in the next round, as both tied for 5th place at the hands of Pat Schumacher (Portland, OR) 9-7 and Bob Olsen 9-6 respectively. Schumacher then ended Olsen’s run at 4th place by a 9-2 margin. In the B-side finals, Jesse Allred eliminated Schumacher at 3rd place 9-7. The tourney final was one-race to 11, and Stan Tourangeau (holder of numerous North American amateur titles) kept control throughout to take the title over Jesse Allred by an 11-6 margin!
By virtue of Pat Schumacher being the highest-finishing ACS member in the event, he qualified for a free 8-Ball singles entry into the 2010 ACS Nationals in Las Vegas – courtesy of the ACS.
