Skip Suzanne Birt, left, and third stone Shelly Bradley discuss strategy during the 2015 provincial women’s curling championship in Summerside last month. The Birt rink is 4-3 (won-lost) at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts national women’s curling championship in Moose Jaw, Sask.
Birt, who curls out of the Charlottetown Curling Complex, used a four-ender and a pair of deuces to outlast Quebec’s Lauren Mann 10-6 in Wednesday morning’s draw at the Canadian women’s curling championship. The result leaves Birt, third stone Shelly Bradley, second stone Michelle McQuaid and lead Susan McInnis at 4-3 (won-lost) – good enough for a three-way tie with Ontario’s Julie Hastings and Northern Ontario’s Tracy Horgan. Quebec fell to 1-7.
