CHAMPION POOL PLAYER SHOWS STUDENTS TRICKS <\/p>\n
WHAT: Multi-title holder in the world of pool (billiards), Shane Van
\nBoening, visits students at the Texas School for the Deaf (TSD) today.
\nVan Boening, 25, tells of his successful pool career, teaches students
\nthe basic mechanics of how to hold a cue stick and aim properly, and
\ndemonstrates some trick shots before playing a few games with them. <\/p>\n
Van Boening, who is hard of hearing, is a role model to young
\naspiring pool players – especially to these students at TSD. He is
\nknown for exuding confidence when competing, and has never allowed his
\nhearing to hinder his ability to succeed. Unlike the stereotypical
\nimage projected of pool players in the 20th century, Van Boening does
\nnot use alcohol or tobacco. Van Boening, in fact, is a new breed in
\nthe sport and offers hope to many young players who have the desire,
\npassion for the game, and the right capabilities to succeed in pocket
\nbilliard disciplines. <\/p>\n
