The Sun Parlour Curling Club hosted the SWOSSAA curling finals on Tuesday, March 5, with two local teams competing in the boys division.
The Kingsville Cavaliers, Leamington Lions, Wallaceburg Titans and Ursuline College Lancers competed on the boys’ side, with Kingsville coming out on top in an exciting final.
In the girls division, it was teams from L’Essor, Blenheim, Sarnia Northern and Villanova in the final four. Sarnia Northern came out on top in the final.
The LDSS Lions lost a heartbreaker to Wallaceburg by a 4-3 score, while Kingsville trounced Ursuline College 9-1 to advance to the final against Wallaceburg.
In the final, Wallaceburg had the lead late, but the Cavaliers came back to win 6-5.
In high school curling, teams qualify as girls’ teams if they are all girls, but boys’ teams only need have at least one boy on the team. The Cavaliers iced a team with three girls and a boy to win their boys’ championship.
Kingsville will now head to the OFSAA championships in Kingston.
