CHEROKEE, N.C. — Rack Of Ages beat Amigos 25-17 in the 8-Ball Teams final at the Ultimate Pool USA Grand Finals, wrapping up at about 7:55 a.m. ET, collecting the $112,000 top prize at Harrah's Cherokee Casino Resort.

Amigos reached the final by beating How You Like Me Now 17-16. Rack Of Ages reached the final by beating Big Time Rockets 31-12.

Billed by Ultimate Pool USA as the biggest match in league pool history, the final closed the league programme at the week-long Cherokee festival — the National Open and Women's Open continue through Sunday.

Why it matters: The title is worth $112,000 from a $282,000 purse — the largest payday in league pool — with the runners-up collecting $50,000, per BilliardNews' Grand Finals coverage.
