There are no unbeaten teams left in the 12-team RME Women of the Rings presented by Case IH, the Manitoba Women’s Curling Championship underway in Pilot Mound.
The last unbeaten, Kristy Watling (East St. Paul) lost 7-4 on the late draw Thursday to Darcy Robertson (Assiniboine Memorial) to finish day two with a 3W-1L record. Robertson, who had lost earlier in the day, improved to an identical 3W-1L record with the win.
With two wins Thursday, Beth Peterson also ends day two with a 3W-1L record in the Asham Ultra Force pool.
Alyssa Calvert (Carberry), who also won two on Thursday, has a 2W-2L record and still has a chance to advance.
Top seeded Kate Cameron (Heather) and #4 seed Lisa McLeod (Pembina) both lost their first game of the day Thursday but bounced back with later victories. Cameron, McLeod, and Hailey McFarlane, who handed Cameron that first lost, all sit atop the Asham Pool with 3W-1L records.
Sarah-Jane Sass (Granite), who lost to McLeod in their second game of the day, split on the day to stay close to the leader group with a 2W-2L record.
Final standings in both pools will be determined by the results of Friday’s 9am and 1pm DRAWS. The top three teams in each pool will advance to the championship round where they will play the three teams from the other pool – with the first round records carrying forward. Three teams will advance from that group of six into Sunday’s playoffs.
