Team Brown came from behind with a huge 9th end to outlast the Swiss. The US came out pretty flat giving up 3 in the first two ends. They steadied the ship though with a series of deuces before taking the lead for good with 3 in the 9th. Able to hit their way through the 10th to secure the vicorty, Brown and Company moved to 6-2 still in soile third place.
For the Team Leader, the tenth end was easier to handle than the previous tenths but the first 9 weren't easy. The pressure is building in the I-plex as the contest is coming down to the wire.
In the afternoon draw, Scotland outlasted Switzerland while Sweden won in extra ends over the Danes; the big shocker was Germany gave Canada its first loss....also in an extra end.
So math of the situation is that Canada and Scotland have one loss; the US two; Germany and Sweden three; and China and Russia four. We play Scotland tonight, then Sweden and China tomorrow. We are in good shape but we need to keep on winning!
Games will be tough but I think the gals are starting to gel now.
USA!
Since we haven't heard from you since Wednesday, and the big games were yesterday, I think that sounds like really bad news, as yet unpublished. What happened? Are you still among the living? Let us hear. e
