"It is an incredible field. A lot of top teams, this might be of the best briers I've ever seen in terms of competitive field."
Kean recognizes the fan and community support and says that can not thank everyone enough.

"We are gong to have to play at the level we played at the provincials or even better to get a shot at the playoffs. Anyone coming out of Ontario has a good chance to do well at the Brier."
This is the first year the team has been together and being rookies they have reached out to other veteran players to get a feel for what the Brier will be like.
"We are really looking forward to it. We are rookies so it is going to be exciting in that aspect and I have asked a few guys that have been there what there advice was and they said to take a step back and enjoy every moment of it, and don't worry what happens in the game you guys will do well."
Team Kean will make their Brier bebut on February 28th at the Saddledome in Calgary.
