Team McEwen took the final of the SaskTel Tankard 7-3 against fellow Saskatoon-based Team Kleiter – securing its place at the 2024 Montana's Brier.

Team McEwen, based out of Saskatoon’s Nutana Curling Club, was firmly in control over the course of the Sunday afternoon match — scoring a total of five unanswered points until Team Kleiter responded with a single stone in the fourth end.

Tides appeared to be slightly shifting in the seventh end, with Team Kleiter scoring two, bringing the match to within three.

However, with a blank end in the eighth — a single score from Team McEwen in the ninth finished the contest.

The team, consisting of McEwen as skip, third Colton Flasch, second Kevin Marsh, and lead Daniel Marsh was undefeated at the Tankard, winning seven in a row.

McEwen himself has qualified for eight Briers. However, 2024 will mark his first representing Saskatchewan.
