Northern Ontario’s Krista McCarville aims for a Hearts easier on the heart
ST. CATHARINES, Ont. — Krista McCarville vows her Northern Ontario team is done with larceny, although it has been profitable for them.
Her Thunder Bay foursome led last year’s Canadian women’s curling championship in stolen points with 31, but it was the playoff round where they took thieving to spectacular heights.
Trailing in both games, McCarville stole three points over the ninth and 10th ends of a playoff win over Manitoba and did the same in a semifinal victory over defending champion Jennifer Jones.
McCarville, third Kendra Lilly, second Ashley Sippala and lead Sarah Potts out of the Fort William Curling Club fell 8-7 to Chelsea Carey in the final in Grande Prairie, Alta.
