Team Brad Jacobs from Calgary has started the 2025 United States Steel Pan Continental Curling Championships with a victory.
The team, consisting of Brad Jacobs, Marc Kennedy, Brett Gallant, Ben Hebert, and Tyler Tardi, defeated China's Team Xiaoming Xu 10-4 at the Iron Trail Motors Event Center in Virginia, Minn.
This match was a rematch of the bronze-medal game at the 2025 BKT World Men's Curling Championship, where Team Jacobs won 11-2.
We fervently hope it won’t be the last time to wear the Maple Leaf this season.
The team is coached by Paul Webster and national coach Jeff Stoughton.
