Rod MacDonald rink now only undefeated team at Tankard

After three round robin draws at the PEI Tankard Final Six in Alberton, the defending champion Rod MacDonald rink is now the only undefeated team, beating last year’s runner-up John Likely team by a 7-2 score this afternoon. In other games, Robert Campbell picked up his first win, 7-5 over Eddie MacKenzie, as did Bill Hope, who beat Tom Fetterly of the Silver Fox, the only non-Charlottetown rink in the competition, by an 8-5 score.

This leaves Likely and MacKenzie with 2-1 win-loss records, while Hope and Campbell are 1 and 2, and Fetterly is 0-3.
Round robin play continues at 6 pm, with MacDonald playing Fetterly, Likely meeting MacKenzie, and Hope facing Campbell, with the final round robin draw set for noon Saturday. Following any tiebreakers, the second and third place teams from the round robin will then square off in the semi-final, with the semi winner playing the first place team in the Sunday final.

The 2010 PEI Tankard winning team will advance to the Tim Hortons Brier, March 6-14 in Halifax.
