Eighth End

The US has the hammer in the eighth end, tied with Sweden at five. The first five stones of the end are on the center line, two Swedish guards out front.

Update: Nice sweeping by Shuster turns a lemon into lemonade as Hamilton takes out the front guard instead of the back guard. Shuster was able to pull the shooter into the house by sweeping.

Update: Tyler George makes another great shot as he hits and rolls, and the US lies two. George is the MVP for the game so far.

Update: George makes another great shot after a Swedish draw, and the US appears to be lying three after a hit and roll.

Update: Edin draws in to lie one with his first shot.

Update: Shuster removes the rock. The US appears to lie two.

Update: Edin tries for a hit and roll. He gets the hit, does not roll. The US could take out that stone for a very good end.

Update: Shuster hits the double, and the US scores five! This may be over as the US leads 10-5.

Update: That was the best end I’ve seen the US play in all these years of watching Olympic curling.
