April 7th curling

Trudie's last post from Timbits 2013:

12:28 PM - Too much excitement!
Both St. Peter's and McDougall won their final events. Both teams only lost won game throughout the Bonspiel.
The team from Almonte that beat Matthew's team yesterday went on to win the entire event. For the first time ever it was a high school that won. (Darn grade seven and eights being placed in high schools).
St. Peter's other team also played in a final this morning. I do not have the outcome of that event.
Lots of positive comments from people on our 25th anniversary Bonspiel and the trophy. lots of kids and coaches still wearing our jackets.
A very good weekend,
Trudie
 

And from Andrea Tranter-Tiffin:

Skylar's team won the "B" Division Championship!! They lost their first game and won the next 5! It was very unexpected, but they played great. Jesse and Wryin's team played each other in game 5. They were both 2 & 2. Wryin's team won that game.  They played today in the final but lost.


8:53 AM - Good morning,
Last night Maddie's team won their final game, Nobel 1 won their final game and Nobel 2 were runner's up in their event.

We are heading out shortly for the final eight which include St. Peter's and McDougall 1.

I will email a final update on the way home.

April 6th curling

7:06 PM - an explanation from Trudie:

It really isn't a flight system although it is. You are just placed under a sponsor. St. Peter's lost their first game and have won the rest. They are playing the team Matthew beat in his first game.
Now Maddie and both Nobel teams are playing in their sponsor finals. Maddie lost three and won two. Now they are playing their sixth game. Nobel 2 lost, lost, lost, lost and won their last game to go on. The other Nobel team won two like Maddie.
Tomorrow Matthew is playing his fifth game in a final after losing only his fourth game. The kids are happy!

Trudie


5:18 PM - We are now in the finals.
Beatty 1 (Ben's team) were down 6-0 in the fourth end this afternoon and then took a five ender in the fifth and a single point in the sixth to end in a tie game. Unfortunately the other team won the draw to the button to win the game and move on to the finals tonight.

Maddie's played Cassidy in a McDougall vs McDougall challenge. The game was close until Maddie took the lead with a six ender. McDougall two moves on the the finals tonight.
St. Peter's and McDougall will finish in the finals tomorrow at 10:00am.
I will check the rest of the finals tonight for Parry Sound teams.

Check in tomorrow,
Trudie
 

1:23 PM - Hello everyone,
Matthew's team lost their semi-final game. They stole 1 point in the first end and then gave up four in the second end. A gutsy take out attempt by Matthew could have given McDougall four but  left Almonte with 1 point. Their skip drew for a second point and they were up six one. In the next end Matthew took a point. In the fifth and sixth ends the Almonte skip threw his rocks through the house or took McDougall's out until they ran out of rocks.
Time to regroup. In this Bonspiel the two winners of the semi-finals go on to the finals and the two  losers square off for an award.
St. Peter's won their game with a measurement to go on to the finals of the B event.
More news to come,
Trudie
 

10:35 AM - Hello everyone,
Ben's Beatty team just took a big win 7-1.
St. Peter's team? Won their game at 7:30 this morning. They are in the semi-finals of the B event.
Stay tuned.
Trudie

10:21 AM - Good morning everyone,
Matthew's team had a an early morning game. They were up 6-1 coming home in the sixth.
The other team drew in, drew in, drew in, until they were sitting five. Rachel missed her take- out shots and the crowd was getting excited. Matthew did a double take-out to help us breathe easier. Rachel swept out the skips's rock to ensure a 6-4 win.
Although both teams played well, the rocks were often at the back of the house. It really was a skip's game.
McDougall two and three both lost to St. Peter's yesterday afternoon. They are playing their do or go home game now, so I have to go.
Catch up with you later today. Matthew 's team play Almonte at 11:00. They are pleased to be in the top four.

April 4th curling

McDougall #1 (Matthew's team) encountered heavy, heavy ice in their first game. Neither team got a rock over the hog line in the first two ends. By the end of the sixth, it was 2-2 so the game went to skip's rocks. the opposing skip hogged his rock. Matthew heaved his rock down the ice and managed to touch the top of the rings for the win.
This McDougall team played their second game against Nobel and won 9-0.
McDougall #2 (Maddie's team) and McDougall #3 (Cassidy's team) lost their first games. Both teams went on to win their second games 11-1 and 6-2 respectively.

Nobel #1 won their first game and then lost to McDougall. Nobel #2 only played one game last night and I don't have the outcome yet.

Beatty (boys team) won their first game and lost their second. I need to catch up with the Beatty girls.

Humphrey lost their first game, only getting three stones to the house on the incredibly heavy ice first thing in the morning. They won their second game at the curling club.

I need to catch up on St. Peter's games.
Stay tuned for update later today if technology works.

Bantam Mixed Results:

The Bantam Mixed Team gained valuable experience at the Bantam mixed Provincials the weekend of March 30th. The team, all rookies at a Provincial event represented the town of Parry Sound and the Parry Sound Curling Club very well. After cruising through the Zone and Regional playdowns, they met up with some experienced competition at the Provincial event, falling short of their goal to become Provincial Champions. However they gained invaluable experience that will help them in their development.
An additional note - Terri Weeks was voted as the Most Sportsmanlike Athlete of the event.
Congratulations to Terri Weeks, Nathan Marshall, Sarah Stoneman and Nick Mayede and to Coach Chris Weeks for a job well done!

Parry Sound High School Results:

The Parry Sound High School Curling Team consisting of Nicole Heikoop (Skip), Ashlyn Simpson (Vice), Allie Kane (Second), Elizabeth Edington
(Lead) and Coaches Rick Graziotto and Stephen Webb travelled to Orangeville Feb 16 to 17th to compete in the Gore Mutual High School
Provincial Curling Championships.
Team Heikoop, which are all grade nine students, won the B flight in their zones in Midland.

They then went to the regionals in Owen Soundand won the B flight there as well.

This gave them the berth into the Gore Mutual Provincial Championship.

During round robin play they went 3-0 and were in first place going into Saturdays semi final match up. The girls needed to beat their fellow zone mates of Patrick Forgarty fom Orillia, who were the A flight champions from both the Zones and Regionals in which the Parry Sound team played in. After a solid game Parry Sound came up a little short and lost their semi final game to the eventual Gore Mutual Provincial Champions - Patrick Fogarty. This moved them to the consolation match up where they unfortunately lost. But more importantly these young girls represented our town, school and club well and with class and ended up in the top four of all high school-aged girls curling team. If they keep up the hard work they can return to try again within the next three years! Good job ladies. 


In addition, Nicole Heikoop was named as the second team all star skip.

 

Congratulations to the girls and their coaches for an incredible run at the Gore championships.

 

 

Congratulations to Coach Weeks, Nathan Marshall, Terri Weeks, Cameron Johnson and Nicholas Mayede, the 2010 Timbit Champions.
