Thursday, MacDonald won twice to extend his winning streak to five games and improve to 7-2 (won-lost). That is good enough for a three-way tie for second place with Alberta’s Wade White and Ontario’s Howard Rajala.
MacDonald plays Ontario on Friday at 10 a.m., and then completes round-robin play against Newfoundland and Labrador’s Glenn Goss at 7 p.m.
