Matthew Morton

I'm 17 years old and started playing cornhole in Driver, VA with my dad when I was 11. We played $2 blind draws for fun with all the money going to charity. I loved playing and it gave me and my dad a chance to spend a lot of time together so we started going to different places for blind draws. After I started doing well, we started playing in the organized leagues and traveling for some bigger tournaments. I eventually decided to become an ACL Pro last season so I could play regularly against the best competition in the world.

I had a great year in my first season as an ACL Pro, with some really great finishes and getting to appear on ESPNs first ever live broadcast of an ESPN event in the Pro Doubles World Championships. I’m looking forward to another great season in 2020!

Curtis Kearns II

I am ACL Pro Curtis Kearns II from the Atlantic Conference and this is my story of how I became a professional cornhole player for the American Cornhole League. I started playing back when I was 15 just like most people at backyard BBQ's. From there I ventured into my first blind draw at a local Buffalo Wild Wings at the age of 17 and I got lucky enough to draw a guy named EB Marsh, the best guy in there at the time, and we ended up finishing second. From then on I was in love with the game. I stayed with the local blind draws for the next 6-7 years and never really ventured off and traveled. I had stared to become one of the best in my area so last year I decided to take on the pro circuit and try to make a name for myself across the country. I ended up Finishing 56th overall In the 2018-2019 season. Time to improve on that in seasons to come!

Jackie Sayasone

I am ACL Pro Jackie Sayasone from the Midwest Conference and this is my story of how I became a professional cornhole player for the American Cornhole League. I was playing at a local bar league, when I met some players that told me about a blind draw event. I thought I was good at cornhole because I was the one who always won at backyard parties or tailgates. So I showed up to my first ACL event and kind of laughed at everyone that had their own bags.
Well, I got my butt whooped and was annoyed. I didn't want to see the disappointment when a player drew me, lol -so as competitive as I am, I decided to buy my own set of bags and practice on my own time. It took me a week to get it all down. Since then I just kept growing as a player. I went out to compete at the World Championships last season, there was a really strong, and special cornhole culture there, and I knew I wanted to be a part of that vibe. Eight months later, here I am! :)

Josh Kipple

I am TeamAddicts Brand Ambassador Josh Kipple from the Mid-East Conference and this is my story of how I started playing cornhole.
I started out just playing at a campground we have a permanent site at and really enjoyed playing . From there I went to my first bigger tournament which was a ACL regional and quickly realized that I was not playing at camp anymore ! Everyone there was so good and making amazing shots and I was like how .. wait .. what?? So that's when I said I can do that and over the last year I put a lot of time and dedication to the sport and started winning a lot of tournaments including some regionals.
