End nine: PEI’s Carmody makes double. Ontario’s McCarville puts last stone to back eight, but is still shot and behind a guard outside the house. Carmody draws to button for a single point

End ten: PEI lies one in eight foot. McCarville has two stones between it and a guard outside the rings. Carmody puts up a guard just outside the rings. McCarville needs a big hit off that guard on to two Ontario stones to remove the PEI rock and count three for the tie. She hits the guard and moves the stones, but didn’t have enough weight to pull it off. Final score: 10-6 for PEI. PEI, looking for their first ever Canadian women’s championship, advances to 3:30 pm Sunday final against Team Canada.
