Curling was a huge family sport — our lives totally revolved around it. I got totally hooked.

Winning a medal would be unbelievable for us ? any medal. It would also be good for the sport.

We had a lot of 'ifs'. I know Canada had to lose.

We will be here until the end of the tournament to watch the USA men's team. Hopefully, they'll get to the finals.

We're disappointed in where we stand. I don't think we're too disappointed in how we played. We definitely want to kick it up a notch now.

The ice is very keen, similar to what we are used to playing on. The practice was good.
