Rebecca and her teammates have made it to the final round of the U.S. Mixed National Curling Championship tournament in Willmar, Minn.

Team Surka will be playing Saturday afternoon (3/23) for the championship.

The team came in second during the round-robin portion of the tournament with a 7-2 record. In its semi-final match on Friday, Team Surka came from behind to beat the third-place team 8-7.

Meanwhile, the top-ranked team was upset 9-2 by the fourth-place qualifier, Team Murray from Wisconsin. That sets up Saturday's championship match between Team Surka and Team Murray.
