It wasn’t the best of weekends for Calgary’s Crystal Webster rink, which includes PEI natives Erin Carmody at third and Geri-Lynn Ramsay at second. They finished play at the Curlers Corner Autumn Gold Curling Classic in Calgary with three losses, each by a single point – 5-4 to Andrea Crawford of Fredericton, 6-5 in an extra end to Amber Holland of Regina, and 8-7 to Lisa Eyami of High River AB.
The team has the upcoming weekend off, before heading to Winnipeg for the $60,000 32-team Manitoba Lotteries Women’s Curling Classic, Oct. 19-22 at the Fort Rouge Curling Club.
The quarter-finals at the Autumn Gold go at 9 this morning (noon PEI time), with the semis at 3:30 Atlantic and the final at 7 pm AT. Qualifying on the A side of the triple knockout were Shannon Kleibrink and Sherry Middaugh, with Cathy Auld and Rachel Homan advancing to the quarters from the B side, and Cheryl Bernard, Stefanie Lawton, Laura Crocker, and Kelly Scott qualifying from the C event.
