One of eight Island rinks to play in the Brier
Skip Tim Horrigan, whose Victoria Curling Club rink won the B.C. championship and represented the province in the 1980 Brier Canadian men’s championship, died of cancer May 5 at the age of 73.
“Tim was a great player and we battled it out many times on the ice,” said Keith Dagg of Victoria, who was on three B.C. runner-up rinks in his career. “He was a real winner off the ice, regardless of the result on it, and you can’t say that about all sports people.” “Tim was really friendly, outgoing and fun to be with and followed his own path,” said sister Gerri Marcheluzzo.
