The weekend of July 17-18 was a big one for Diamond Eight, as we celebrated 10 years of our annual Edward M. Skawinski Memorial Golf Tournament, to benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Capital Region!
On Saturday, July 17th, we held a Scotch Doubles 9-Ball Tournament which saw 7 teams compete for cash prizes and trophies. Congrats to winners Tracie Aldous and Scott Winchell, who edged out Audre Hartman and John Robinson in the final match. It was a great day and fun was had by all!
On Sunday, July 18th, our 10th Annual Memorial Golf Tournament saw 55 golfers compete in the best-ball scramble format. Congrats to Sean Kiernan, Bill Kiernan, Dean Halpin and Ted Rudzinski and Bob Badger, Jim Campone and his son, Michael. Both teams tied at 12 under par, but since Sean’s team birdied hole #4 and Bob’s team parred it, the tie was broken!
Congrats to Colleen Knapik who won the Vizio LCD HDTV! She is one happy lady! And special thanks to Kathleen Hill who won the 50/50 on Sunday but donated her half back to Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Capital Region! Thank you!
Photos are now posted on our flickr site!
A BIG THANKS to everyone who supported us this weekend and all of our great helpers! Special thanks to Julie, Kim and Tracie for their help all weekend!

Diamond Eight once again hosted the APA of Albany’s Local Team Championship, the culminating event of the league year. Teams who qualified during the 2009-2010 season competed in both 8-ball and 9-ball formats. In 8-Ball, Diamond Eight’s “Gone Shootin,” (John Stock) were able to hold on against Diamond Eight’s “Odd Balls” (Ryan Brown) in an extremely tight final match and punch their ticket to Las Vegas, where they will compete in the APA National Team Championships.
