Mr. Morra, had an early first round match beating Adil Qayyum (A) by a (9-2) score. The second match against Chris Ormston (AA) was a much harder (9-5) victory that was not as easy as it looked. The finals saw Mario battle tooth and nail against Hermie Dy (AAA) an intense player whose never quit demeanor makes him tough to beat. The two cueists battled back and forth for over two hours before Mario finally got the jump on Hermie and won (9-7). Mario Morra advances to Quebec.
