I think it's going to be a good tournament! Middaugh and Hanna are going to make it a little more interesting!

Missing Links

STOH Provincials are almost ready to go and I cannot find a website for the event let alone the Kenora curling club website. Does anyone have links?

Should be a tightly contested Ontario Scotties this year up North in Kenora. My top 5 goes a little something like this:

5th- Hanna- solid but inconsistent team has a decent week, just missing out on the play-offs.

4th- Horgan- Good young team that keeps improving every year, still have work to put in before they play in a Scotties.

3rd- Homan- One of the very best young skips in the country. However, something seems to be missing this year. I say the trend continues and they loose the semi.

2nd- Middaugh- They started the year off as hot as anybody in the county but seemed to have cooled off the last couple months.I expect them to play well all week, loosing a close final.

winner- McCarville- It's hard to believe she has played in 7 finals in a row. This year she makes it 8, winning a close final against Sherry. I expect she will have a good run at the Scotties finishing top 3.

Good luck to everyone

All they can do is hope the ice is good in the far North.

I actually believe McCarville's team is as strong as ever.
Tara hasn't been on the team for two years now. Ashley has had time to grow into her new role on the team. Imo, she is more consistent then Tara ever was.
As for "All-star" Kari being absent, Imo, Sarah is a much better hitter now. I like the way Sarah throws the rock, a hair in-out with lots of rotation (just like her dad). I even here that Kari will be playing lead when she gets back next year.
Don't sleep on Liz Kingston, she had lots of success playing with Heather Houston back in the day. She can play.
This team is "youngery" and well coached by one of the best. I stand by my pick.

playdowns.com is an excellent website. Updates are ASAP, and very often descriptions of ends/situations are given. All of you southern whiners will be pleasantly suprised (disclaimer: i live in Toronto lol).

The draw is now out.

http://www.playdowns.com/noca/draw-sched.php?id_cmp=144

I've gotta root for McCarville, and the draw 1 match-up against Homan will be very interesting.

VERY

Thanks for the draw jamie...both of these Teams are so under-prepped this season.

Always love Krista cause she has the talent but never finishes well - and I've been watching every single year since she suddenly rose up to beat Marilyn Bodogh way back when

Rachel Homan's Team are defending ON reps but they seem to have been "half" there this season. Maybe personal priorities, balanced lifestyles
whatever.. they are probably the most Talented Women's team in Canada.. but just dont seem that ready to go the Jones-style of living on the ice road...to get World-champion primed to win...


Interesting read in todays Chronical Journal ( NW ON paper)

I know I've discussed Cathy Auld previously, however I just have this feeling she is going to be the dark horse, under the radar from the media. I was just looking at the 2009 Ontario Scotties, and was reminded Team Auld came third in round robin play, but lost the 3/4 game. In 2008 throwing last rocks for Alison Goring, Auld lost the final to Krista McCarville.

She has a much stronger team than 2009, and they have been working hard. She defeated Rachel Homan and Jenn Hanna in the Regional playoffs to win the A-side. Perhaps the Final could feature team Auld? A rematch of the '08 final between Auld and McCarville? or a rematch of the A regions between Hanna and Auld? Maybe a rematch of the A Region Semi's between Homan and Auld? I guess we won't know until next Sunday!
