Monday Mixed

I know what you're thinking. When did Yvon Valiquette have a shave and play in the World Curling Championship? Well, that's not him, that's Tom Brewster from Team Scotland. Yvon plays in the Thursday Mens League but I am sure he would like to get to a World Championship. For now, however, he will have to settle for Thursday nights at the BRCC. And if he wants to hone his curling skills further, he could join the Monday Mixed and curl 2 nights a week instead of one. The Monday Mixed is an excellent league and everyone has a good time, just like this past Monday.

Ice A:  Bob Villeneuve vs Francois Lemieux. WIN for Lemieux. The Lemieux squad win their fair share of games in the Monday Mixed League. They have found a good balance between veteran curlers and new curlers and the chemistry has produced good results. They win the "Successful Titration" Award.

Ice B: Jerry Jensen vs Al Viel. This was a "TWIN"...Tie - Win (for Jensen). Apparently this was a tie and then they decided to play one more end and the Jensen crew pulled it out. The Viel crew wins the "Shoulda' Quit While We Were Ahead" Award.

Ice C: Sandy Milroy vs Glen Austin. WIN for Milroy. The Milroy rink continues to be one of the top teams in this league thus far this season. They have won the vast majority of their games so they win the "Who Is Going To Knock US Off The Hill?" Award.

Ice D: Gator Fortin vs Dan McMillan. WIN for McMillan. The Fortin rink has had an up and down season. They win a few and lose a few but ALWAYS have a good time regardless. They win the "Nevermind The Scoreboard, It Interferes With The Game" Award. Great bunch of people, this team!

So that's hot it played out for this Monday Mixed. Just another good evening for those people involved. Want a good night out with your significant other...or just looking for another night to curl, get involved with the Mixed League. Great people, great games!

Rock On!
