Team Canada edges PEI in Scotties extra end, MacPhee plays Quebec in lone game Monday (Journal)

ST. CATHARINES, ONT. – A late rally by the Robyn MacPhee rink fell just short on Sunday night.

The P.E.I. representative from the Charlottetown Curling Complex scored three in the 10th end to tie Team Canada’s Chelsea Carey 7-7 in a round-robin game at the 2017 Scotties Tournament of Hearts. However, Carey, who had the hammer, counted a single point in the extra end to pull out an 8-7 win to improve to 2-1 (won-lost) at the Canadian women’s curling championship.
