Schut and MacLean teams both one win away from PEI Under 18 titles

The Rachel MacLean Girls Team and Mitchell Schut Boys rink from the Cornwall Curling Club are both one win away from winning PEI Under 18 Championship titles at the Montague Curling Club after capturing both the A and B sections of their modified triple-knockout draws and advancing to their respective “C” finals at 9:30 Sunday morning. A win in that game or either of the two championship round games at 2 and 6:30 pm would give MacLean or Schut the title for their division. If they don’t win the “C” final, the winner of that section would also have to win both championship round games.

Team Schut cruised to a 14-2 victory in six ends over the Isaiah Dalton rink, also from Cornwall, in the “C” semis on Saturday evening, while MacLean beat Cornwall clubmate and reigning U16 champ Ella Lenentine 6-2 to advance to their “C” final. As happened in the “A” and “B” finals, Schut will be facing clubmate Brayden Snow in the “C final, while MacLean will take on the Madalyn Easter squad from the Silver Fox in Summerside. Team Snow doubled Brock Rochford and his Silver Fox team 6-3 in the “C” semis, while Easter beat Sydney Carver from the host Montague club 8-5.

In the “B” section finals Saturday afternoon, MacLean beat Easter 5-3, while Schut rink defeated Snow by a 7-4 score.

MacLean and Schut win both A and B sections at PEI Under 18

The Rachel MacLean Girls Team and Mitchell Schut Boys rink from the Cornwall Curling Club have  wonboth the A and B sections of their modified triple-knockout draws and have a big advantage going into the remaining draws at the PEI Under 18 Curling Championships at the Montague Curling Club.

In  the “B” section finals Saturday afternoon MacLean again faced the Madalyn Easter squad from the Silver Fox in Summerside, winning by a 5-3 score, while the Schut rink again played clubmate Brayden Snow and his team, winning 7-4.

Winning two sections puts both MacLean and Schut in both championship games on Sunday, and a win in either will give them the championship, while their opponent, the winner of the C division, would have to win both. In the event that MacLean or Schut also advance to the “C final and win it, they will take the title without playing the championship round.

The “C” semi-finals go at 6:30 Sat. evening, with the “C” finals at 9:30 am Sunday. The championship round, if needed, goes at 2 pm and, if needed, 6:30 pm on Sunday.

In the semis, Schut takes on Isaiah Dalton, Snow faces Summerside’s Brock Rochford, MacLean plays clubmate and reigning U16 champ Ella Lenentine, while Easter and Sydney Carver from the host Montague club square off.

In the 4-team Boys Division, Team Schut had two decisive victories against Cornwall clubmates, downing the Isaiah Dalton rink 10-1 in six ends, and then blanking defending champion and clubmate Brayden Snow 9-0, also in six ends, in the A Qualifier of the modified triple knockout draw. Team Snow followed a four-ender with a steal of three in an 11-1 six-end win over the Brock Rochford rink from the Silver Fox in Summerside in their opener.

Team MacLean, who were U18 finalists last year, doubled the reigning U16 champs, the Ella Lenentine foursome, also from Cornwall, 8-4 in their first game in the 4-team Girls division, and then beat the Madalyn Easter squad from the Fox 7-3 to earn a spot in the championship round. Team Easter doubled the host club’s Sydney Carver rink 10-5 to advance to that “A” qualifier match.

 With the modified triple knockout format, section winners drop down to compete in the next section. If a team wins all three sections, they will win the event without a championship round. A double section winner will have a “double life” in the championship round, winning the event if they take either game, while their opponent would have to win both. If a team wins all three sections, they will be declared the champion, and the championship round will not be played.

There are three draws on Saturday, with all teams seeing action at 9:30 am, with Dalton playing Snow and Rochford playing Schut in the Boys division, and Carver facing MacLean while Easter takes on Lenentine in the Girls. The winners of each division face off in the “B” qualifying games at 2 pm. All teams are then back in action in the “C” semi-finals at 6:30 pm.

The “C” Qualifier games go Sunday at 9 am, with the Championship Round, if necessary, going at 2 pm and, if needed, 6:30 pm.

Explanation for Championship Round Games (BA/GA and BB/GB):

1. If one team wins all three qualifiers: Championship Round is not required.

2. If one team wins two qualifiers: they play in both BA/GA and BB/GB (and win the event if they win either game), while the other winner plays in BA/GA (and has to win to advance to BB/GB).

3. If there are three separate winners: the team that played in the most qualifying games* plays in BB/GB and the other winners play off in BA/GA If there is a tie in number of qualifying games played, then the team that qualified earliest goes to BB/GB and the other two teams play off in BA/GA.

*Qualifying games have game number/letter highlighted in yellow on the schedule
