In May, four pool teams from Paulding County traveled to Las Vegas, Nevada, for the 2015 VNEA Pool Tournament. The teams were- “Who’s Next”, team member are Oggie Lehman, Bob Lehman, Jeff Mekus, Harry Mcswiney, and James Miller; “I Don’t Know”, team members are Mark Marenberg, Bill Voirol, Don Foltz, Gene Edwards, and Bill Stahler; “Road Warriors”, team members are Bob Geiger, Rich Rower, Art Razo, Chris Beardsley, and Ryan Hogans; “Post It Up”, teams members are Marc Sanchez, Tim Bostelman, Greg Thatcher, Chad Whitmore, and Matt Riffle. The teams played in the open division which consisted of 332 teams from around the world. The “Post it Up” team was the last American team in the tournament and came in third place behind teams from Spain and Canada. The team dedicated every accomplishment this year to fellow member, Mike Alcorn, who passed away suddenly during this year’s pool season.
