Team Gushue third Mark Nichols is on the road again chasing his curling dream, less than a week after the birth of his second son, Emmett.
Nichols is with the team in Calgary this week competing in the last event of the year.
It wasn’t Nichols’s idea to head out for the Champions Cup. He was more than happy to stay home and help with the newborn baby duties.
Team Members:
Gushue came through with a draw just inside the top of the eight-foot ring with his final throw for a dramatic 7-6 win over Canada’s Kevin Koe.
“I knew we had it,” Gushue said. “I was somewhat celebrating from the hogline in because I felt it was going to be a little closer to the button. But anyway it turned out [well], it doesn’t matter.
“Ten from years now you’re never going to know what shot you had to win. It’s just the matter that you won.”
