The first of the semi finals saw Timmy Sousa defeat Honky Burrows.

Sousa would have to spot Burrows eight points to start, with Sousa winning 2–1.

The second semi finals match saw Hawkins defeat  Jacal Washington 2-1, with Hawkins spotting Washington 10 points.

In a race to two games in the final showdown, Sousa gave up five points and Hawkins won in straight rames — winning 56-45 and 49-37.
