The Board of Directors has elected Ricardo Carranco from Los Angeles to the Board as an at-large Director. Ricardo Carranco is 27 years old and has been playing 3-cushion since 2007. He has run many local tournaments in the Los Angeles area. Los Angeles, as many of you may know, is probably the most heavily-populated area as far as 3-cushion billiard players are concerned. In fact, there may be thousands of players in that area alone consisting primarily of Latinos but also of many Korean and Vietnamese players as well. We hope to welcome and include all these players and rooms into the USBA family.
