McDermott All American Tour at Greenfield’s Pool & Sports BarThe seventeenth stop of the 2005/2006 McDermott All American Tour (produced by the American CueSports Alliance – ACS) featured a $1,000-added purse and fifty-six players hosted by owner Todd Grosvenor and director Gary Holdren at Greenfield’s Pool & Sports Bar in Lakewood, Colorado, on the weekend of March 18-19. The event featured double-elimination 8-ball on 7-foot Dynamo bar boxes. Rich Cunningham of Burnsville, Minnesota, marched undefeated through the winner’s bracket, defeating Chad Pointer (Aurora, CO) in the winner’s bracket semi-finals 5-0 and Sam Cordova (Pueblo, CO) in the winner’s bracket finals 5-4. Prior to his loss to Cunningham, Sam Cordova had knocked off Rick Field (Lakewood, CO) 5-0. In the loser’s bracket finals Field fell at Cordova’s hands again by a 5-3 margin, thus earning Sam a title shot at Rich Cunningham. Cordova was up to the task, as he out pointed Cunningham 5-3, 5-2 for the Tour win.By virtue of being the highest-finishing ACS member, Rich Cunningham won a free entry into either the 2006 ACS National 8-Ball Championships or the 2006 ACS National 9-Ball Championships – courtesy of the ACS.
