LAVAL, Que. — Laurie St-Georges' curling team has partially disbanded after narrowly missing the playoffs at the Canadian women's curling championship.
St-Georges, vice Jamie Sinclair, second Emily Riley and lead Lisa Weagle went 5-3 at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Thunder Bay, Ont., to finish just outside the top three teams at 6-2 that advanced out of their pool.
The team said Thursday in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, that Sinclair and Weagle were stepping away from the team "to pursue new opportunities and personal endeavors."
St-Georges was a second-team all-star in her fifth straight appearance skipping Quebec.
Sinclair, a former U.S. women's champion skip, joined St-Georges' team in 2023 and three-time Canadian champion lead Weagle was recruited last year.
The post said St-Georges and Riley were exploring their options.
