The Middaugh rink found success defeating Carey in the tiebreaker and defeating Homan in the semifinals. Middaugh's rink was unable to defeat the Jennifer Jones rink in the final, therefore claiming the silver medal at the event.

Middaugh, and her rink of Karri-Lee Grant, Melissa Foster and Jane Hooper Perroud won the 2025 Canadian Senior Curling Championships, going undefeated at the event.
