Sweet/Matheson duo win Ferguson-Logan Montague Funeral Home Open Div., Clarke/Stavert go undefeated for another Women’s Div. title

The Ferguson-Logan Montague Funeral Home PEI Stick Curling Championship wrapped up Thursday afternoon at the Cornwall Curling Club with the Clair Sweet and Bob Matheson team from the Maple Leaf Curling Club in O’Leary winning the Open Division (any combination of male and/or female curlers), while the host club duo of Gloria Clarke and Ruth Stavert went undefeated to capture their 8th Women’s Division title out of the eleven that have been held to-date, 

This year’s event attracted 24 teams from 5 curling clubs, the largest field ever for a PEI stick curling championship, with 18 Open division and six Women’s division teams signed up, playing a pooled round-robin competition with a championship round. Stick curling is a two-person per team event with six-end games.

The top four Open Division teams along with the top two Women’s division duos from this event earned the right to advance to the Maritime Stick Curling Championships at the Wolfville Curling Club March 12 to 14, 2021. The Canadian championships are cancelled this year.

Sweet and Matheson finished with a 5-1 win-loss record, beating Cornwall’s duo of Alva Clarey and John Dunsford in the final by a 5-2 score. Clarey/Dunsford finished with a 4-2 record. The other semi-finalists were Montague’s Billy Power/Howard Kerwin pair, who lost 5-3 to Sweet/Matheson, and Alvin Hackett and Victor Hogan from the Western Community Curling Club in Alberton, who were tied 4-all with Clarey/Dunsford after four ends of their six-end contest, but lost 9-2 after Clarey and Dunsford followed a 5-ender with a stolen deuce.

In the Women’s Division final,  Cornwall’s Janette Fraser and Carolyn Crockett picked up a deuce in the first end, but the Clarke/Stavert twosome quickly recovered with scores of 4, 2, and 4 points to bring the game to a speedy conclusion with a 10-2 score after 4 ends. Crockett/Fraser edged Cornwall clubmates Etta Reid and Elaine Hughes 6-2 in the semi-final. Reid/Hughes are the only team besides Clarke/Stavert ever to have won the women’s event, winning it in 2014, 2018, and 2019.

Three round-robin draws, beginning at 8:30 this morning, and three Championship Round draws remain to be played as the Ferguson-Logan Montague Funeral Home PEI Stick Curling Championships, which has attracted the largest field ever for this event, wrap up this afternoon at the Cornwall Curling Club. Only two teams, both from the host club, remain unbeaten going into the final day — the Alva Clarey/John Dunsford rink in the Open (any combination of men and/or women) division, and the Gloria Clarke and Ruth Stavert duo, who have been frequent winners of the women’s division, and pulled off a rare six-ender in this year’s event.  Six Open teams have only one loss. Clarke/Stavert are 4-0, while three teams are next at 2-2 in the Women’s event.

Rare six-ender scored at PEI Stick Ch’ships Tuesday afternoon

 

A rare six-ender (the stick curling equivalent of an eight-ender in traditional curling) was scored this afternoon in the Women’s Division at the Ferguson-Logan Stick Curling Championships, by the host Cornwall Curling Club duo of Gloria Clarke (left in photo) and Ruth Stavert, who have won the women’s stick championship multiple times. They scored with all six of their rocks in the first end of a game they won by a final score of 12-1.
