HALIFAX - Brad Jacobs beat Matt Dunstone 6-5 to win the men’s final Saturday night at the Montana’s Canadian Curling Trials.
Jacobs and his Calgary-based team swept the best-of-three matchup against Dunstone’s Winnipeg side and will represent Canada at the Milan Cortina Olympics in February.
With the game tied after nine ends, Jacobs had hammer and made a hit for a single to win it in the 10th.
Earlier in the day at Scotiabank Centre, Ottawa’s Rachel Homan defeated Christina Black of Halifax in the women’s final.
Jacobs and his team of vice Marc Kennedy, second Brett Gallant and lead Ben Hebert outscored Dunstone 9-8 in Game 1 on Friday night.
Jacobs was forced to a single in the opening end of Game 2. Dunstone gave up a steal in the second when he was light on a draw but pulled even
