It was a very tough day for the Derek and team. Two losses in the first two games. From the on-site reports sounds like the first game was a very good one and the second was not.
A bounce back today with two wins will put them in good position for the weekend. Here is an excerpt from someone who was there.
(from Ben Tucker, ND curler and internet friend)
Draw One saw the best two teams playing against each other on Sheet 3. Farbelow, with the addition of Eric Fenson throwing second stone and vice skipping, looked very much the team that the top teams in the nation would not like to play. The were matched rock for rock, truth be told, by the Surka rink. All eight players were above 80%. I didn't keep stats, but I know 80% when I see it. Great game, won by Farbelow. If it was a semi final at Nationals, we would all be proud.
(game 2)
Sheet 2 saw the wheels come off the Surka Express. They could not make a rock do anything according to plan. Stephen Colbert's remote controll rock was sorely needed but nowhere in sight.
