Curling fans and newbie spectators alike were treated to an exciting game between the top two teams at the Ontario Tankard Thursday night.
The men’s curling championship will decide Team Ontario for the upcoming Tim Hortons Brier. One of four draws last night saw skips Glenn Howard and John Epping go head-to-head in an exciting test of strategy.
The game, which determined the A Bracket winner, was a close one that had the teams tied at six at the eighth end. Howard took four points in the ninth to win the game 10-6. He will rest today and be back for the playoffs on Saturday, while other teams continue to battle for position.
Tickets for all remaining draws, including the finals on Sunday, are available online at 2018tankard.ca or you can purchase tickets at the door. See the standings and remaining games here.
