After losing an exhibition match, Bud played his #7 match and went the distance before losing his composure in the 5th. Teddy at #3 played brilliantly and crushed his opponent in 3 evening the team match at 3. It all came down to Sam R's match at #5. Sam struggled early and went behind 2-1 but regained his form to force a 5th.
