Final Four Set to Square-Off
by Kirstin Pires

Mika Immonen of Helsinki Finland and Roger Griffis of Mesa, Az., remain undefeated in the $150,000 Camel Pro 8-Ball tournament, while Canton, Ohio's Troy Frank and Filipino superstar Efren Reyes have one more chance to stay in the race for the $30,000 top prize.

Griffis sent Reyes to the one-loss side, 7-5, during the 8:00 round last night, and Reyes then defeated George SanSouci,7-4 at 10:00 to win a spot in today's final four showdown. Frank, this year's Derby City Classic 9-Ball champ, also lost to Griffis, 7-5, in the 3:00 round Thursday, after a brief rules dispute. Frank then defeated Jose Parica 7-5, Japan's Takeshi Okumura 7-5, and David Matlock, 7-3, to advance to the first semi-final. The winner of that match at noon will take on the loser of the Immonen-Griffis face-off.
