Marco Ferraro

After graduating from McGill University, he would later join the Lachine based Lawren Steventon rink, throwing second stones.

The team won the 1988 Quebec men's curling championship, earning them the right to represent the province at the 1988 Labatt Brier, Canada's national men's curling championship on home ice in Chicoutimi, Quebec.

As it happened, Ferraro was the only French speaking curler in the tournament, and was invited by RDS to commentate games in that language.

Ferraro played lead for Quebec at the 2010 Canadian Senior Curling Championships, on a team skipped by Pierre Charette.

After an eight-month battle with brain cancer, Ferraro died in August 2017 at the Notre-Dame Hospital.

Ferraro's invention, the "Marco Hack". His first name appears behind the hacks (not visible here).
