PEI’s Kathy O’Rourke rink, who finished as runners-up to the Suzanne Birt team last year, will be getting another shot at the Lady Monctonian title, as they are playing in this afternoon’s 2 pm final, against Nova Scotia’s Kelly MacIntosh team, at Curl Moncton.
O’Rourke advanced with a 7-3 win over Sylvie Robichaud of NB in the quarter-finals this morning, and a 9-2 routing of Halifax’s Mary-Anne Arsenault foursome in the semis, following up a 5 point third end with a stolen deuce in end four to put the game out of reach at the mid-point.
MacIntosh knocked off defending champ Birt in the semis, with a four point fourth end and a single steal in five and went on to win 7-5. Birt beat Tania Phillips 7-4 in the quarter-finals, while MacIntosh doubled Melissa Adams 8-4.
