Tsawwassen curling standout Shawna Jensen is heading back to the 2015 Tim Horton's B.C. Junior Curling Championships next week, looking to improve on her bronze medal finish from a year ago with an entirely new rink.
The South Delta secondary graduate, who skipped South Delta to the B.C. high school championship in 2012, played for a rink based out of the Victoria Curling Centre last year. This time, Jensen has teamed up with talent from Powell River, Juan de Fuca and Delta Thistle in search of gold in Parksville.
The rink, which also features Katherine Silversides (third), Michaela Douglas (second), Rebecca Douglas (lead) and Sarah McCrady (fifth) captured the "C" Event at the recent Coastal Playdowns.
The eight team provincial championships runs from Dec. 28 to Jan. 3. The rink to beat is Team Daniels which features three gold medalists from 2014 event - Sarah Daniels (skip), Marika Van Osch (third) and Megan Daniels (lead). Jensen's other main competition is expected to come from Team Brown from Kamloops which won the 2013 Canadian Junior Championship.
