• 10 YEARS AGO — Lois Fowler was on the wrong side of the inch in Killarney on Sunday, and it cost the Brandonite her third straight provincial senior women’s curling title. Fowler failed to move Kim Link’s stone far enough in the four-foot with her last in the provincial final and gave up a steal of one to fall 8-6.
