Gushue and his "maritime agglomeration" did not fare as well. A respectable showing, going 3 and 2, the Gush can't be doing cartwheels with his teams' strength. I watched a few ends via Live Streaming and Team Gushue had a few flashes and lots of 1/2 shots. If these boys want to make it to the Olympic trials, they will have to get some more practice in for sure.
Stoughton lost the final against Epping but quite a good run all the same. I guess Nichols in the lead position is working out.
In BRCC news, things are in the "getting ready" phase for the new season. The ice will be going in next week! Don't forget, Sept 24 in the evening, Tom Leonard will be there to get the ice going. This is worthwhile stuff and it's free. if you got the time, come out and learn about curling ice. Then, the next time you complain about it or praise it, you'll know exactly what you are talking about.
Looks like our membership will be down a bit this year. It's still a little early and more memberships are due to come. If you are still planning on registering, please get your paperwork in (call Kristy Blanchet, Lorraine Liss or any other board member), ASAP because the conveners will need some time to make up the league schedule and need to know if you are playing and what your team is.
Don't forget what i said about the Open 8-Ender League. There won't be major changes and it is NOT meant to be a competitive league. It just allows for freedom in mixing men and women who want to curl together. Give it a try...certainly don't let it be the reason you are not curling. C'mon, it'll be fun.
Rock On!
