One draw is in the books for the PEI teams at The Dominion Curling Club Championships in Scarborough Ontario, but those books don`t record a win.

The PEI men`s team from the Crapaud Community Curling Club includes skip Alan Inman, along with Steve Thomson, Gordon Fall, and Tony Quigley. They lost their opener 7-5 to the Richard Faguy rink from Quebec, who, trailing 2-1 after three, grabbed the lead with a big five point fourth end, and stole a single in the fifth for a 7-2 lead. PEI fought back with a deuce in six, and a single in seven, but the Quebecers ran them out of rocks in the eighth.

The Island women`s rink, skipped by Nola Murphy out of the Silver Fox Curling & Yacht Club in Summerside, also fell victim to a five-ender in their game against Quebec`s Sonia Simard rink, which they lost by an 8-1 score. The first end was blanked, with Simard recording singles in ends 2 through 4. PEI got on the board with a single in end five, but the five-pointer by Quebec in the sixth brought the game to a speedy conclusion. Other members of the Murphy rink are Donna Arsenault, Paulette Richard, and Elspeth Carmody.

PEI next plays Nunavut at 5:45 pm (Men) and 9:15 pm (Women) Atlantic time.
