Rebecca heads to 2019 national curling tournament

Rebecca continues her curling career as a member of Team Senneker - which is headed for the 2019 USA Curling National Championships.

The team qualified for Nationals based on points accumulated in matches this fall. Three other women's teams and five men's teams likewise qualified on points. The top-ranked teams are those headed by John Shuster, skip of the 2018 Olympic Men's Gold Medal team, and by Nina Roth, skip of the U.S. 2018 Olympic Women's team.

Another four men's and three women's berths at Nationals will be determined this month in USA Curling's Challenge Rounds in Minnesota. A junior men's and a junior women's team will be selected to bring the field to 10 men's and 8 women's teams.

The 2019 National Championships will be held Feb. 9-16 in Kalamazoo, Mich. We'll try to keep you updated on Team Senneker's progress!

Rebecca has played in multiple national tournaments. Last year, she was on a team that finished fourth in the Women's Nationals, as well as a team that made it to the final round of the Mixed Nationals. You can find stories from past years by checking our Sports archives.
