Lotts win consecutive Canadian Mixed Doubles Championship in PEI

Kadriana and Colton Lott have made history by winning the Canadian Mixed Doubles Curling Championship for the second year in a row. The couple from Gimli, Manitoba, won the final match 9-8 against Nova Scotia's Marlee Powers and Luke Saunders in Summerside, PEI, on Friday. They are the first team to win this championship back-to-back since the event started in 2013. The Lotts took an early lead with three points in the first end. However, they faced challenges, allowing their opponents to score in several ends. The match was decided in an extra end, where the Lotts scored a crucial point to clinch the title. Colton shared his excitement about their win, saying it's hard to describe the feeling of being national champions again. He added that winning back-to-back titles is incredible. The Lotts finished the tournament with a strong record of 10 wins and just one loss. Next, the Lotts will represent Canada at the 2026 World Mixed Doubles Curling Championship. They were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs in last year's tournament.
