Chilliwack’s Lisa Deputan rink booked their tickets to the BC Senior Women’s Championship with a B event win at last weekend’s Lower Mainland qualifier.
Joined by Janet Klebe (second), Kerri Miller (third) and Laurie Shimizu (lead), Deputan went 4-1 to secure her spot.
The tournament started on a down note when the Chilliwack crew lost their Friday afternoon opener, falling 3-2 to Lynn Noble (Royal City/Qualicum).
Relegated to the B bracket, Deputan started to roll with an 11-3 win over fellow Chilliwackian Joanne Kern.
In her third match, Deputan’s group rallied from a 6-4 hole with one in the seventh and two in the eighth, edging Karen Lepine (Langley/Cloverdale) 7-6. Deputan moved into the final with a 6-3 win over Carol McFadden (Royal City).
The Chilliwack four earned sweet revenge in their last match.
Trailing 4-1 through five ends, they scored two in the sixth, two in the seventh and three in the eighth, doubling up Noble 8-4 to take the B event crown.
They’ll be in Richmond Feb. 15-21 for the BC Senior Women’s Championship.
