The Big Sky 406 team of Helena Billiard Congress of America (BCA pool league) played in Las Vegas, Nevada, at the World Pool Tournament for the championship trophy last week.
The team, representing Montana in the BCA League Championship, February 18-28 at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort and Casino, was tasked with playing in a qualified BCA league for 8 weeks.
Team member, Wade Terrauld, explained the team entered the Championship Bracket with their qualifying matches 9-6, win 8-7, win 11-4, loss 7-8 and a win 8-7. “With those wins, we qualified for the championship bracket ranked 24th. After a few bad roles, things just didn’t go our way and we lost out. We ended up 65th in our division. Each of our players also shot singles in separate divisions based on Fargo ratings.”
The Fishtale Tavern, Bunkhouse Bar and the Glass Slipper sponsored the team.
