Ontario skip Mike McEwen made a big-weight hit to score a pair in the 10th end for a 9-8 victory over Alberta’s Kevin Koe in a crossover elimination game at the Tim Hortons Brier
The Ontario skip made a big-weight hit to score a pair in the 10th end for a thrilling 9-8 victory over Alberta’s Kevin Koe in a crossover elimination game Friday at the Tim Hortons Brier.The victory moved the home side into the four-team Page playoffs on the weekend at Budweiser Gardens. Wild Card 1’s Brendan Bottcher also advanced with an 8-5 win over Northern Ontario’s Tanner Horgan.
The Ontario-Alberta game lasted about five minutes longer, allowing the partisan crowd to fully concentrate on the late efforts of McEwen and teammates Ryan Fry, Brent Laing and Joe Hart. “There’s always great playoff games but that ranks up there as one of the most entertaining that I’ve ever been a part of.”
Horgan, meanwhile, held Bottcher to a single in the first and took the lead with a deuce in the second end.
