The quest for a wheelchair curling four-peat at the Paralympics continues for Canada, with the rink set to face China in the semifinals on Friday at 2:35 a.m. ET.
In the team’s round-robin game earlier in Pyeongchang, the Canadians rallied from a 5-1 deficit to beat China 8-5.
It has been a total team effort on the sheet so far from Mark Ideson, Ina Forrest, Dennis Thiessen, Marie Wright and alternate James Anseeuw, who went 9-2 in round-robin play.
Mark Arendz has one more shot at winning an elusive biathlon gold in Pyeongchang. Arendz — who owns biathlon silver and bronze as well as cross-country bronze from these Games — competes in the men’s 15-kilometre event tonight.
- Biathlon sitting events (featuring Canadian bronze medallist Collin Cameron) at 9:00 p.m. ET,

Canada’s snowboarders are back on the hill for the Paralympic debut of banked slalom.
