Team Shuster (l-r) John Shuster, Tyler George, Matt Hamilton, and John Landsteiner. Clark, Shuster to meet in men’s final By Terry L. Davis, Daily Pebble Editor // THE PLAYOFFS ohn Shuster’s team will have a chance to defend their national title after defeating Craig Brown, 7-1, in Friday afternoon’s semifinal game of the 2016 USA Curling National Championships. #1 Brady Clark JShuster (Duluth, Minn.) and teammates Tyler George (Duluth, Minn.), Clark Matt Hamilton (McFarland, Wis.), and John Landsteiner (Duluth, Minn.) will now take on Brady Clark’s team in the men’s gold-medal game Saturday night at #2 John Shuster Shuster Veterans Memorial Arena.

I think the teams Shuster were on a level playing field and we’re comfortable going out there and playing Semifinal our game and knowing that’s what’s going to stand up at the end of the day. We’re #3 Korey Dropkin going to have to bring everything we got in the next one.” Shuster’s team has already earned enough points to represent the U.S. at the Brown 2016 World Men’s Championship in April but being national champion and #4 Craig Brown finishing out the week on a winning note is what’s most important, George said. “The team talked about it all week – and all week last year when we were in a similar situation having already secured the berth to worlds – that’s our trophy and our names are on it until someone takes it away from us,” said George, who is seeking his third men’s national title. “We want to keep it in the club. Anything less than the gold this week will be disappointing for us.” Shuster’s team got on the scoreboard in the second end to score the game’s first points with a deuce. Brown patiently waited for opportunities to score more than a point but had to settle for a single in the fifth end when the team’s takeout attempt kept the shooter stone in the rings instead of resulting in the intended blank end. 2016 USA Curling National Champions (l-r): Erika Brown, Allison Pottinger, Nicole Joraanstad, and Natalie Nicholson.

The game slipped away for Team Brown in the seventh end when Shuster’s team got three rocks positioned around the button. Brown used his first stone to attempt a cross-house double takeout but the angle wasn’t there. In the end, Brown would miss his final shot as well and Shuster’s team stole three points to put the game away. Brown (Madison, Wis.) and his team of Kroy Nernberger (Madison, Wis.), Jared Zezel (Hibbing, Minn.), and Sean Beighton (Seattle) will be awarded the bronze medals.

It’s taken us a little while to gel as a team so it was really important for us to come into this event and do well,” Walker said. “All of us did really well this week – not just one or two of us and then trying to string shots together – so it was really important for this team to cap off the season and play re- ally well. I definitely feel like we left it all out there … and it feels good.” Brown’s team had control of the second half of the game but a few late game snafus nearly cost the Brown Team Roth (l-r): Nina Roth, Monica Walker, Aileen Sormunen, and Vicky Persinger Team Christensen (l-r): Cory Christensen, Sarah Anderson, Taylor Anderson, Madison rink the title. “I don’t think it’s ever over until it’s over; Bear, and Christine McMakin. we’ve all learned that lesson the hard way a few times,” Brown said. Team Brown made a hit for one point in the first end to start the offense. Roth answered with a deuce in the second end only to have Brown’s team counter with two points in the fourth. In the sixth end, facing four Brown stones, Roth had to draw to the button while avoiding two Brown team stones sitting on the top corners of the four-foot. Roth’s sweepers got it to touch a corner of the button to score a single point and tie the game at 3-3. The Brown rink narrowly swept past stones in the top of the house to draw in for two points in the seventh end and take a 5-3 lead. The team then benefitted from a great hit and roll by Pottinger to leave one of their stones in Team Brown (l-r): Craig Brown, Kroy Nernberger, Jared Zezel, and Sean Beighton. the four-foot behind guards in the eighth end. Roth was forced to use her first stone to peel a guard to open the path. Brown simply utilized her team’s final rock to re- cover the path to the four-foot. The best option for Roth // THE PLAYOFFS was to attempt to double angle raise a guard to remove Brown’s rock in scoring position.
