Cdn. Juniors: it’s an Alta./Sask. women’s final at 8:30 pm AT, live on TSN

(CCA)  Saskatchewan, skipped by Trish Paulsen of Saskatoon, advanced to the women’s final of the M&M Meat Shops Canadian Juniors in Calgary, defeating Manitoba (Breanne Meakin of Winnipeg), 7-6 with a steal in the 10th end in today’s semi-final.

 Saskatchewan will now meet host Alberta, skipped by Nadine Chyz of Calgary, in the Saturday evening final, starting at 5:30 pm MT/8:30 pm AT, live on TSN from the North Hill Community Curling Club.

Chyz finished in top spot after the round robin with an 11-1 record to earn a bye to the final, while Paulsen, the second place finisher with a 9-3 mark, needed to beat Manitoba to advance.

It came down to last rock in the 10th end, as Meakin chose an in-off rather than a draw with her last stone, in order to try to erase a Saskatchewan counter in the back four. But she was a little wide and nose-hit it instead, allowing Saskatchewan to steal the win.
