Saskatchewan men, Alberta women remain unbeaten

(CCA) Saskatchewan, skipped by Braeden Moskowy of Regina, and Alberta, skipped by Nadine Chyz of Calgary, are now the only undefeated teams at the M&M Meat Shops Canadian Juniors.

Chyz moved to 7-0 with an 11-7 victory over Ontario’s Clancy Grandy of Waterloo Monday evening, while her closest pursuer, Saskatchewan’s Trish Paulsen of Saskatoon, suffered her first loss, an extra end 7-6 decision to Manitoba’s Breanne Meakin of Winnipeg, to fall to 5-1.

Moskowy, in his first game at the North Hill, after playing his first five games at the Glencoe, managed to escape with a win over Manitoba’s Sam Good of Stonewall. The dramatics came via a steal in an extra end for the 8-7 theft, after forcing the extra with an incredible cross-house double for two in the 10th. The Callie Curling Club team remains alone in first with a 6-0 mark.

Behind Saskatchewan at 5-2 are Newfoundland/Labrador (Colin Thomas of St. John’s) and New Brunswick (Jon Rennie of Fredericton). Thomas fell to Prince Edward Island’s Spencer Pitre of Charlottetown, 8-4, while Rennie was a 7-3 winner over British Columbia’s Jonathan Gardner of Vernon.

Prince Edward Island (Sarah Fullerton of Cornwall) is now 3-4 after losing to Newfoundland/Labrador’s Erin Porter of St. John’s, 8-4,
