After struggling in the early going, Kaitlyn Lawes of Winnipeg found her game Monday to propel Canada into the Olympic mixed doubles curling final with an 8-4 win over Norway.
Lawes left points on the table early on but, with the support of curling partner John Morris of Ottawa made the big shots that counted late.
They will face Switzerland in the final. It gets started just after 6 a.m. Eastern Time.
Morris is a Wilfrid Laurier University grad.
The pair did some training at the K-W Granite Club before leaving for the games.
