Event Information

Rick Folk and Tom Wilson had been playing partners on a Saskatoon Nutana men's rink when they decided to enlist Cheryl Stirton and Bonnie Orchard from the University of Saskatchewan to compete in the 1974 mixed curling championships. The Canadian championships were held in Winnipeg and the Folk rink won its first three before losing to Ed Steeves of New Brunswick in the fourth round. After that, the Saskatoon rink sailed along, closing with a 9-3 victory over Alberta to finish in a first-place tie with New Brunswick, each with nine wins and one loss. In the final, Folk scored three on the fifth to take a 6-4 lead, Steeves scored two on the sixth to tie the game, the seventh was blanked and then Folk put the game away with a three on the eighth. Steeves got one back on the ninth but ran out of rocks, losing 9-7 in the championship showdown.
