Team Matt Dunstone steals again in an extra end to remain in playoff contention at GSOC Champions Cup.
SASKATOON — Team Matt Dunstone of Regina stole again in an extra end to remain in playoff contention in the Humpty’s Champions Cup.
Facing two counters, Dunstone placed the perfect freeze on the back one with his last and it held up for the winning shot as Team Carruthers fourth Mike McEwen’s short raise went sideways and missed the mark. Carruthers converted with the hammer to start to score a deuce in the first, forced Dunstone to a single in the second and then tacked two more on the board in three to lead 4-1. However, Dunstone flipped the script in the next three ends getting a couple in four, forcing Carruthers to one in five and potting another pair of points in six to knot it up 5-5.
Team Carruthers dropped to a 1-2 record and must win their last in the evening against Team Brendan Bottcher.
