Kerri Einarson, Jennifer Jones to meet in Page 1-2 playoff at Scotties
PENTICTON, B.C. — A wild ride for Wild Card entry Kerri Einarson continues at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts.
Einarson’s team from East St. Paul, Man., has earned top spot in the playoff round of the Canadian women’s curling championship with a 9-2 record after defeating Alberta’s Casey Scheidegger 6-4 at the South Okanagan Events Centre Friday evening.
That sets Team Wild Card up for a meeting against Manitoba’s Jennifer Jones in the Page 1-2 playoff on Saturday. Team Northern Ontario’s Tracy Fleury (8-3) will play Nova Scotia’s Mary-Anne Arsenault (9-2) in the Page 3-4 playoff.
“It’s awesome, I’m ecstatic … I’ve got goose bumps all over,” said Einarson.
