ACS Presents The McDermott All American Tour Results from Yogee’s The nineteenth stop of the 2005/2006 McDermott All American Tour (produced by the American CueSports Alliance – ACS) featured a $1,000-added purse and forty-two players hosted by owner Toby Faas at Yogee’s in Roseburg, Oregon, on the weekend of April 8-9. The event featured double-elimination 9-ball on 7-foot Valley bar boxes. Mike Cronk of Myrtle Creek, Oregon, marched undefeated through the winner’s bracket, defeating Tom Huynh (Roseburg, OR) in the winner’s bracket finals 7-6. In the B-side quarterfinals, Ken Cavener (Grants Pass, OR) eliminated Randy Baker (Coos Bay. OR) 7-3, while Greg Christensen (Bend, OR) ousted his son, Jesse Christensen (Bend., OR) 7-2. Cavener then finished Greg Christensen’s run by a 7-3 margin in the B-side semifinals, only to be turned out himself by Tom Huynh in the finals. Huynh had to defeat Mike Cronk twice to gain the title, and he succeeded in the first set by a 7-5 score, only to have Cronk turn the tables by the identical 7-5 margin in tourney finals to claim the championship.By virtue of being the highest-finishing ACS member, Mike Cronk won a free entry into the 2006 ACS National 8-Ball Championships – courtesy of the ACS. Rick VanBerger won the McDermott Cue raffle.
