WPBA Great Lakes Classic - Fisher Takes the Title
June 29th, 2008 by PCN
Well, that doesn’t help too much since the finals pitted Allison Fisher against Kelly Fisher, but you know how I like to be all witty and stuff. Here’s how the last day of the tournament went down.
In the first match, Kelly played Sarah Ellerby in a hotly contested semifinal. It was neck and neck through the 10th rack with the two tied up at 5-5 when Kelly finally broke free to win the match 7-5. On the other side, Allison had a fairly easy time with longtime rival Karen Corr, jumping to a 5-2 lead and winning the match 7-4.
In the finals, it was close through the first nine racks with Kelly and Allison trading the lead. After taking the ninth rack though, it was all Allison Fisher who took down her second win in three tournaments. Damn is she tough!
If you’re looking for more details, I really recommend you hit the WPBA website and check out some of the highlight PDFs from Anne Craig. She does a much better job than I do reporting on this stuff and really has a passion for writing about the game and takes lots of great pictures of the action.
That’s all for now. Congrats to Allison on the win and look for the matches to show up on ESPN in late July or early August.
