ROSWELL, N.M. - iSportsWire -- Anthony Beeler, PBIA Master Instructor, ACS Level 4 Master Instructor, and founder of the Virtual Billiard Academy, earned two hard-fought victories in a special exhibition challenge match against Leroy Weimer, widely regarded as one of the top pool players in Roswell, New Mexico.

The exhibition featured a race-to-five format in both 8-Ball and 9-Ball. Beeler captured the opening 8-Ball set by a score of 5-3 before narrowly winning the 9-Ball set 5-4. Because Beeler won the first two sets, the scheduled 10-Ball tiebreaker was not necessary.

"Any time you compete against a player of Leroy's caliber, you know you're going to be tested," said Beeler. "Leroy played extremely well, and I was fortunate to come out on top in two very competitive sets."
