The team had an early morning start, with an 8AM game against a familiar oppenent, Team Howard from the Coldwater Curling Club. We jumped out to an early lead with two in the first, but gave up two in the second. With a nice takeout an roll away we managed to blank the 3rd to retain hammer in four. This was a great end, a ton of rocks in play and with skips last rocks we were sitting 3 with two of them buried behind a wall of gaurds. Holly's last rock took out our 3rd shot rock so we had a draw to the eight foot to grab three. With our 5 - 2 lead we tried to keep it clean in 6 and were mostly successful. Erin made a nice gaurd with her last leaving Holly a difficult angle tap to score one, she throw great weight but it never curled and we stole two. Headed to 6 with a 7 - 2 lead it was all about keeping it clean. Brooke throw two great rocks into the 4 foot while they put up gaurds. Robyn did a nice job of keeping the front open with her two and Christina made 2 nice hits, With Erin's last we were sitting two behind a lone gaurd and needed to draw top of the four foot to leave them a tough hit and stick for 1, when there shooter rolled out and another steal of two we shook.
We got the results from the shootout, our total of 96 inches place us first in our pool and 2nd overall for the Ladies Event, this won us $75, but more importantly the tiebreaker advantage in our pool.
Next up at 3:30PM is Team Thurston.
