Provincial Intermediate Champions

WOW, what a weekend!!! We did it though, it definately wasn't easy, but we did it. We won the PEI Provnical Intermediate Championships with a record of 6-0. We played on Saturday, two very close games, which we ended up stealing in the 10th ends. That put us at 4-0 and into the Final on Sunday night.

On Sunday morning, we played in the B Division Semi-Final for a change to play in the B Final and the 2nd birth in the Final game. The Semi - was a close game for a few ends, but we managed to score 4 in 6th end to take a 4 point lead. We hit away for the last few ends and won the game.

We met the Jeff Nelson team from Montague in the B Final. They had to beat us twice to win this year. The game was extreamly close, but we managed to battle our way back through some rough ends, missed shots, and shortened tempers. We scored a big 3 in the 8th end and took a steal of 1 in the 9th end to be up 2 playing the last end. The end was well played by both team with Jeff having a chance at scoring 2 and tying the game. He was just a bit out on the hit he needed to play and left us for one and the win.

So thanks to Jody, Jamie and Les for all playing so well and coming through with the hard fought victory. Way to go guys, we're Provincial Champs!!!!!
