We're in the Red and Under the Radar

The Scotties, aka Provincial Scotties Tournament of Hearts, January 26-30, 2011, is a 16-team split round robin.  All teams vote to seed the teams from strongest to weakest.  Team Lumax was seeded low, because they are an unknown quantity. They are happy to be entering this prestigious event, under the radar.  The team is relaxed, fit and confident, taking The Scotties in perspective, as a training event toward their ultimate goal:  Manitoba Senior Women's Championship.  No women's team could ask for a better training event.  The team believes they can pull off more than a couple of upsets in Altona, two weeks from now.
