Cowan Crushes the Competition

Viking Cue Ladies’ 9-Ball Tour / Atlanta, GA
by InsidePOOL Staff
Billiard News - Father’s Day weekend saw 25 women come out to the Viking Cue Ladies’ 9-Ball Tour at Mr. Cues 2 in Atlanta, GA, with 24-year-old Katie Cowan of Charlotte, NC, taking top honors. Not only did Cowan go home with first place, she also scored the WPBA qualifier for their event in Norman, OK. {mosimage}
Mr. Cues was an excellent host for the event, featuring 40 tables, a full bar, and a kitchen. They sectioned off eight tables for the players and had raised seating for spectators.
The event was a race to 7, alternating breaks and true double elimination. Lisa D’Atri started off her event with wins over Amy Chen, Leslee Davis-Blackie, Buffy Jolie, and then over Cowan 7-5. But she stumbled in the hot seat match against Dawn Fox, who bested her 7-3 and sent her to the one-loss side to face Cowan again.
Not one to forgive easily, Cowan exacted revenge upon D’Atri, eliminating her 7-5 to go on to meet Fox in the finals. Earlier, Fox had defeated Autumn Duncan, Cheryl Couch, and Susan Mello. In the finals, it was all Cowan, who handed Fox two consecutive losses, 7-5 and 7-3, to win the event.
Results:
1st Katie Cowan
2nd Dawn Fox
3rd Lisa D'Atri
4th Betty Sessions
5th Susan Mello
Susan Wilbur
7th Autumn Duncan
Dianna Lane
