This past weekend two sisters from the small town of North Utica, IL qualified for the US National Mixed Curling Championships; their THIRD year in a row. They were unable to compete the first year due to Covid, last year they got second place at Nationals, and are eager to represent Illinois, April 12-16, at the Denver Curling Club in Golden, Colorado.
Bella and Mae Hagenbuch met Fergus Falls native Cameron Rittenour, formerly of East Peoria, IL when they were 11 and 13 years of age.
