Val Sweeting team names New Brunswick’s Andrea Crawford as new third

The Val Sweeting team from Edmonton, who lost third Joanne Courtney to Ottawa’s Rachel Homan rink, has announced that New Brunswick’s Andrea Crawford will be their new third.

Crawford, who curled out of the Gage club in Oromocto, is a former Canadian Junior Champion, and skipped the New Brunswick team at the Scotties seven times — in 2006, and every year from 2009 through 2014.
