Michelle McQuaid, second stone for the Suzanne Birt rink, releases a shot while third stone Shelly Bradley and lead Susan McInnis are ready to sweep. The action took place during last month’s provincial women’s curling championship at the Silver Fox Curling and Yacht Club in Summerside.
The team out of the Charlottetown Curling Complex improved to 2-1 (won-lost).
Birt counted deuces in the first and third ends with the hammer, and stole a single in the fourth end to go up 5-1. Horgan (1-2) closed to within 6-5 after eight ends, but Birt scored a single point in the ninth.
P.E.I. will face British Columbia’s Patti Knezevic (0-3) and Alberta’s Val Sweeting (3-0) on Monday.
