Cash league comes down to final ends
I
KEVIN WEINREICH and Team Williams win curling title.
Team Williams raised some serious cash on the last night of the season to win the Christensen Collision Cash League. The Nanaimo Curling Centre’s high-calibre mixed league held skins-format play Thursday to end off 2011-12.
Team Williams, skipped by Kevin Weinreich, had gone into the final week in third place, but won $170 to bring its total to $710. Helping Weinreich to victory were teammates Wes Craig, Keith Clarke and Dallyce Gillespie. The Mack Truck team, skipped by Bob Chlan, had been in first place and won $110 on Thursday, but not enough to hang on for the title. Kesa Van Osch’s EDI Team B.C. won $90
to retain its third-place standing. Another noteworthy performance from Thursday’s skins game saw Mark Knutson’s Handy Hands team win every skin for a $200 payday that vaulted it all the way from 11th place to sixth place. GAME ON … The Nanaimo Curling Centre will host the Williams Moving and Storage mixed championships starting Thursday (March 15).
