A pair of curlers are Red Deer College’s Athletes of the Week.
Katie Primrose and Jordan Smith won the honours after competing in the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association Curling Canada Championship in Leduc from March 24-28.
Primrose, Queens curling team lead, had the second highest shooting percentage (70 per cent) in her position at the national championship and led her team to a 3-4 record. The second-year management certificate student from Rumsey, Alta. will now wrap up her curling college career.
Smith, a third-year education elementary student from Wimborne, Alta., played lead for the Kings at nationals. While the Kings went 1-6 at the competition, Smith finished his last three games with 89, 91 and 91 per cent shooting percentages.
All RDC teams have completed their 2017-18 seasons.
The college’s Athletic Awards will be held April 10 at the RDC Arts Centre, with the 15th annual Kings and Queens Scholarship Breakfast taking place the next morning.
