Grant Brown and his Thompson team had a modest objective at the Seagram’s Whisky Men’s Curling Club Championship at Fort Rouge this week – play for at least as many hours as the one way drive from Thompson.

They were assured five games so five, 8-end games would do it! Five short games would not!!

They’re into  bonus time with a third win today – an afternoon win over Kyle Forsyth (Dauphin). The win left the two teams with a 3W-2L record – and the two teams required to play a tiebreaker for second place.

First in the pool went to the Derek Anderson (Gimli) team who finished 4W-1L with a final round win over Corey Thompson (Der Lodge).

The top two teams in the other pool advance to playoffs with identical 4W-1L records.  Andy Stewart (Stonewall) and Devid Bohn (AMCC) both won their final round games. Stewart beat Elmwood’s Brett Walter while Bohn eliminated Randy Neufeld (La Salle).

Bohn will have first place thanks to a round robin win over  Stewart.  

In the semifinals at  10AM Sunday at Fort Rouge, Bohn will play the Forsyth-Brown winner while Stewart plays Anderson.
