Lethbridge’s Casey Scheidegger a skip to watch after shining in Grand Slam debut
Casey Scheidegger entered her first Grand Slam curling event as a skip with plenty of potential. She showed the stacked field at the Canadian Open that she belongs at the top level.
Scheidegger beat top names like Jennifer Jones, Rachel Homan, Val Sweeting and others this past week before topping Swiss skip Silvana Tirinzoni in the final. Not bad for a foursome that has never made it out of provincial playdowns before.
“We just wanted to play well and make lots of shots,” a modest Scheidegger said Monday from Lethbridge, Alta.
Mission accomplished.
