“I felt great coming out,” said Overton-Clapham. “I had a great feeling and I had my draw weight. It was super exciting to be out here, the crowd was great. What a great week.”

Overton-Clapham and her team — third Karen Fallis, second Leslie Wilson and lead Raunora Westcott — will now represent Manitoba at the Canadian womens curling championship in Charlottetown, Feb. 19-27.

Overton-Clapham will be joined in Charlottetown by defending champion Jennifer Jones, also of Winnipeg.

The two teams meet on the evening draw Feb. 23.
