Ralph Payne and Don Truscott sweep a stone under the watchful eye of skip Jerry Wallace during the Abbotsford Men’s Bonspiel last weekend.

A pair of junior-aged teams met in the final of the Sunrise Toyota Abbotsford Men’s Bonspiel, and the rink skipped by Surrey’s Tyler Tardi emerged victorious.

Tardi knocked off Cody Tanaka, whose team won the Abbotsford Thanksgiving Junior Cashspiel in the fall, to claim the A championship. Semifinalists were Tom Connatty of Kamloops and Steve Decter from Abbotsford.

The spiel drew 20 teams to the Abbotsford Curling Club, and the B final was a clash of local rinks, with Bob Arksey defeating Jim Dorgan. Dan McCaughan of Langley and Ken MacDonald of Abbotsford were the semifinalists.

In the C final, Don Frycz from Delta Thistle and Royal City topped Vancouver’s Lenard Firkus.
