THUNDER BAY, Ont. — Rachel Homan's curling team battled both the ice and Kayla Skrlik's foursome and triumphed on both counts to stay unbeaten at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts on Sunday.The victory was a grind for the defending champions and reigning world champions, however.
In Pool B, Skrlik, Saskatchewan's Nancy Martin, B.C.'s Corryn Brown and Alberta's Selena Sturmay were bunched at 2-1 behind Homan's Ottawa Curling Club side. Einarson won the third of four straight Hearts crowns in Thunder Bay in 2022 when COVID-19 restrictions kept fans out of the building until the final weekend."It brings back so many memories," Einarson said."I was thinking of seeing my dad jump over the rails the last time we were here, when after we won, and I was just like, envisioning that and seeing him celebrate.
McCarville, who lost the 2022 Hearts final to Einarson, got little run support from her lineup in the game's back half and faced multiple Alberta stones with her final throws.
