 Manitoba's Kate Cameron (photo: Andrew Klaver, Curling Canada) won 12-6 over Laurie St-Georges to improve to 3-1 at the Scotties in Thunder Bay. Cameron, with Taylor McDonald, Brianna Cullen and Mackenzie Elias, continues to ride the momentum from their win in the Manitoba Championship in January. Without hammer to start against St-Georges, Cameron stole two points in the first end to get on the scoreboard. St-Georges, with Jamie Sinclair, Emily Riley and Lisa Weagle, bounced back in the second end, scoring three points. St-Georges continued to control play early, forcing Cameron to a single point in the third end to regain hammer advantage. The fourth end was the turning point in the game, where Cameron pressured St-Georges throughout the end, lying five counters ahead of St-Georges last shot. After some discussion around which shot to play, St-Georges opted for the hit and roll, with the miss leaving five stolen points on the board for Cameron. Cameron stole two more in the fifth end to hold a 10-3 lead into the break. St-Georges scored two points in the sixth end, then stole a point in the seventh end to close the gap, though Cameron scored two points in the eighth end to seal the win. The win improved Cameron's record to 39-22 on the season. Cameron opened their Scotties competition on Saturday afternoon with an 8-4 win over Yellowknife's Kerry Galusha, following up with a 12-3 loss to Winnipeg's Kaitlyn Lawes on Sunday morning. In Sunday's evening draw, Cameron bounced back with a 15-4 win over Brooke Godsland of Newfoundland and Labrador. Cameron hits the ice next on Tuesday evening, facing the third Manitoba team in their pool - Gimli's Kerri Einarson - who's coming off back-to-back losses. |
