Team Port (Watson (S), Cattanach, Begg and Cherry) and Team Starboard (Charters (S), Hogg, Galloway and Peat) took to keen but slipy underfoot ice at the Galleon on Tue 6 Feb in the second round of the President's Cup. With Team Port already in the cumulative lead, their mind set was clearly to capitalise on this and enhance their overall position.
A steal in the first end saw Team Starboard take the lead but in the next 2 ends Team Port surged ahead with a 4 stone lead. Team Starboard fought back with a 3 in the 4th end to peg the scores at 4-5. Undaunted, Team Port took the next 2 ends with some fine play and skilful draws by their Skip to lead 8-4 in to the final end.
Try as they may to at least peel or at best achieve a significant score, Team Starboard could not prevail but did secure a 2 stone win to finally lose 6-8. The last round of the President's Cup is scheduled for 20 Feb having had the ice booked for 16 Jan cancelled due to ice quality problems. The results can be found here or click on the side panel."
