PRINCE ALBERT, Sask. - Trevor Bonot’s Northern Ontario rink is playing for the Canadian Mixed Curling Championship.
Bonot’s rink, which consists of vice-skip Jackie McCormick, second Mike McCarville and lead Amanda Gates, knocked off Jamie Koe’s team from the Northwest Territories 6-5 in Saturday morning’s semifinal, scoring once in the eighth with hammer to break a 5-5 deadlock.
Koe started with the hammer and was up 3-1 through four, but Bonot took the lead with three in the fifth and stole another point in the sixth to go up 5-3. Koe scored a deuce in the seventh to even the match, but couldn’t get the steal he needed in the eighth to advance to the final.
Asselin edged B.C.’s Miles Craig 5-3 in the other semifinal.
