(by Monty Mosher)

Glen MacLeod and his Mayflower teammates are going back to the Brier.

Well, sort of.

MacLeod and his team of Peter Burgess, Colten Steele and Robbie McLean beat reigning champion Jamie Murphy of Lakeshore 8-5 in Sunday’s Nova Scotia men’s curling championship final at the Halifax Curling Club.

The winners don’t have a guaranteed spot in the Tim Hortons Brier in Calgary beginning Feb. 28. They will have to earn a berth in a three-team play-in competition with P.E.I. and Yukon.

Murphy and MacLeod, both 5-2, were the top two teams from the round-robin. MacLeod swept Murphy 3-0 in the event, including both playoff games.
