Team Epping Claims Victory at KW Fall Classic in Thrilling Extra End Finish!

Kitchener-Waterloo, ON – KW Fall Classic Champions!

We had a great weekend curling in the KW Fall Classic.

Our match started with 3 blank ends. We managed to take 2 points in the 4th end, setting a strong pace for the game. The momentum continued as we then stole 1 point in the 6th end, giving us a solid lead. However, Team Yanagisawa wasn’t going to go down without a fight. They rallied back and took 2 points in the 7th end, making the score tight at 3-2. To add to the drama, they stole 1 point in the 8th end, bringing the score to a tense 3-3.

With the match tied, we headed into an extra end. We made some crucial shots and played with precision, ultimately coming out victorious!

The facility was impeccable, and the atmosphere was electric, thanks to the efforts of all the dedicated volunteers and staff.
