On Wednesday August 17 the following game was played: E. Holden, T. Rushworth, A. Burns (skip) - 18, defeated C. Willey, L. Gilford, L Cross (skip) – 14.
Both teams won nine ends, but Alana’s team picked up a three on the second end, then did not score on the next five ends which allowed Lillian’s team to gather eight points to make it 8/4. Suddenly Alana’s cats pounced, picking up a three, five, two and four one-pointers to make it 18/8 on the 14th end.
Lillian’s team gathered themselves and came home strongly to put on six points in the last four ends but Alana’s team had enough points on the board for the win of 18/14. Great game ladies!
On Thursday, the team of D. Polley, G. Bell, P. Marcus (skip) – 21, defeated J. Duncan, P. Weir, N. Sandford (skip) – 11.
Disaster struck on Nancy Sandford’s team, for on the 14th end they went down eight shots. It proved to be a closely fought game throughout, only for that end. Still, the ladies showed good sportsmanship to the finish.
Congratulations to all the teams.
