“B” Qualifier game winners Miranda Ellis (left) and Jamie Newson

In the other games, “A” section winners Rachel O’Connor and Ryan Abraham recorded three four-enders in a 14-6 victory over Jenny McLean and Edward White from the Fox, who scored five of their six points in the sixth end, while the other game saw Melissa Morrow and Kenny Stewart from the Silver Fox and the host club edge the Aleya Quilty and Tyler MacKenzie twosome from the Charlottetown Curling Complex 5-4 in a closely fought, low-scoring battle.

Coming up at 4 pm, Newson/Ellis play O’Connor/Abraham while Ferguson/Smith face Morrow/Stewart in the “C” semi-finals. The winners move on to the “C” qualifier match Monday at 9:30 am.

If either “A” Pool winners O’Connor/Abraham or “B” pool victors  Newson/Ellis win the “C” qualifier, they will play in both of the championship games, on Monday at 12:45 and, if necessary 4 pm, and win the championship if they take either game, while their opponent would have to win both games to be declared champion. If another team wins the “C” final, the team that played in the most section qualifiers will earn a bye to the second game.

This year’s Mixed Doubles winning team will advance to the 2019 Canadian Mixed Doubles Curling Championship, March 19-24 at the Willie O’Ree Place in Fredericton NB.
