March 19, 2012
Duluth's Andy Jukich rink is seeking Minnesota's first mixed title since 1994 and is off to a 3-0 start on that journey at the 2012 USA Curling Mixed National Championship.

Jukich (Duluth, Minn.) and teammates Jill Hansen (Duluth, Minn.), Harold Rutan (Olympia, Wash.), Mary Shields (Duluth, Minn.) kept their record perfect by collecting a 9-5 win this morning over Ohio's Nik Geller rink at the Portage Curling Club in Portage, Wis. Minnesota scored four points in the second end that propelled them to their third straight victory. The win helps Minnesota keep pace with Washington (4-0) and Alaska (3-0). Alaska had the bye this morning but Brady Clark's Washington rink earned a 10-4 win over Nick Myers and his Texas squad.
