Century Snooker Club played host to CSNS Ranking Event 7 on Saturday March 11. The 9-Ball event had 23 players.
William Holmes survived a trio of of close matches to start his A-side journey, coming out on the happy side of hill-hill battles against Wayne Rodgers and Janet Ritcey, and bettering Michael Cullymore 9-7. Holmes then dug in with a resounding 9-1 thrashing of Evan Paul to claim the hot seat and await his final opponent to be decided among those on the one-loss side.
Jim Rhodenizer won his first match 9-2 over Bobby Earley, but then dropped his next match to Cullymore 9-8. Rhodenizer recovered with wins in tilts over Nick Kaiser 7-6, Billy Martin 7-4, Darrell Abolit 7-6, John Baker 7-2, and defeating Evan Paul 7-4 to earn a place in the final alongside Holmes.
In the final match, Holmes, a resident of New Glasgow, defended home turf convincingly, ending Rhodenizer's run with an 11-3 scoreline.
Alton Robinson had his ticket drawn for a chance at $82 per ball in the CSNS 10-Ball Break and Run contest. Robinson enlisted Kyle Richard to Break and Run on Alton's behalf. Richard made a ball on the break, and proceed to follow that up making the one-ball for $164 total before ending unsuccessfully on the two-ball.
The next CSNS ranking event will be March 25 at Doolys Sydney. 10-Ball break and run contest will be $65 per ball + half the ticket sales in Sydney.
