Kerry Galusha's Northwest Territories rink earned their first win at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts in record fashion on Tuesday.

CALGARY – Kerry Galusha and her rink from Yellowknife have been on the wrong side of the coin over their first three games at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts, and seemed destined for a fourth consecutive loss on Tuesday morning at WinSport Arena.

“It feels really good because we were down 7-0 at one point and we weren’t feeling good,” said Galusha after the improbable 10-9 win over Ontario’s Team Danielle Inglis. “We had to stay positive. We had to claw our way back.” Team Galusha then scored six consecutive points before knotting the game at 9-9 with a three-spot in the ninth end.

The seven-point comeback win was the largest in Scotties Tournament of Hearts history, which dates back to 1982. Three rinks previously shared the tournament record with six-point comebacks in 1984 and twice in 2007.
