Ashley Moler beat Beth Blackstone for the Women’s title and then fell just a bit short in the A singles final against Ivan Lugo.  Vinnie Natale emerged undefeated in the 40 singles as did Andy Wills and Jim Westerman in the 50 doubles.

It was a great weekend in the Old Pueblo with players enjoying the Saturday Evening Banquet at the Hall of Fame where Kelly Albers was presented the Marty Decatur Sportsmanship Award.  Next year, the Hall of Fame will celebrate its 25th anniversary and is looking to add the Masters singles and Women’s Classic to the weekend’s activity.

Many thanks to Charlie Wicker, Vince San Angelo and the Tucson Community for a great weekend.
