Both teams have clinched a playoff spot.
They may meet in the one-versus-two Page playoff game.
The two remaining draws will determine who plays who and when, including the final draw of the round-robin.
Team Corryn Brown of Kamloops 鈥� coached by Vernon's Jim Cotter 鈥� is 5-0 going into her final two round-robin games at the B.C. Women's and Men's Curling Championships Friday, Jan. 24, at the George Preston Recreation Centre in Langley.
Team Kayla MacMillan is 5-1 and will meet Brown in the final preliminary round draw on the women's side Friday at 7 p.m.
Brown plays winless Sarah Wark of Abbotsford Friday at 2 p.m. Vernon's Alyssa Kyllo throws second rocks for Wark.
If MacMillan and Brown finish atop the standings, they will meet in the one-vs-two game Saturday at 9 a.m., with the winner getting a berth in the provincial final Sunday, Jan. 26, at 9 a.m.
The loser drops to play the winner of the three-versus-four game, which goes Saturday at 9 a.m. The semifinal will be played Saturday at 2 p.m.
MacMillan, and her front end of lead Sarah Loken and second Lindsay Dubue are the returnees from the 2024 B.C. championship team, skipped by the now-retired Clancy Grandy. MacMillan moved into the skip position from third, and added Sarah Daniels to the rink.
