PTI Voyagers and Primo’s Home Boys continued to lead their respective divisions in the Budweiser Open 8-Ball League ran by the Saipan Billiards Association.
Voyagers improved their league-leading 37-11 win-loss mark in the Agingan Division skunking tailender Coral Reef Shark Attack, 4-0, Tuesday Night at the latter’s home turf.
The PTI quintet of Roman Rodriguez, R.J. Mascarinas, Jojo Talibong, Rolly Villanueva, and Luis Fajardo accounted for 139 points against the 99 put up by Shark Attack’s Bernard Kileleman, Bill Limes, Ben Norita, Patrick Taitano, and Vince Mareham.
The loss pushed Shark Attack down deeper in the cellar with a woeful 11-37 standing.
Second-running Docomo Pacific Hustlers kept pace with Voyagers after registering a 4-0 shutout victory against Godfather’s Rock Steady at Krystal Perfect Spot. The rout was mirrored by the points spread, as the Hustlers came away with 140 points to Rock Steady’s 101.
The victory gave Hustlers a 36-12 slate, a half game behind rival PTI, while the loss knocked down Rock Steady’s record to 15-33.
