Career

Crandall played in her first provincial championship during the 2009–10 season as third for Ashley Howard. The team made it to the final of the 2010 New Brunswick Scotties Tournament of Hearts, where they lost to Andrea Crawford 8–5. The team won the 2010 Lady Monctonian Invitational Spiel to start the 2010–11 season.[3] They would however not qualify at provincials that year, finishing the round robin with a 2–5 record. After the season, Tingley joined the Melissa Adams rink. The team qualified for the provincial final at the 2013 New Brunswick Scotties Tournament of Hearts, where they would lose to the Crawford rink 13–6.[4]

Crandall made her first national appearance at the 2014 CIS/CCA Curling Championships playing as third for Jennifer Armstrong. The team finished in last place with a 1–6 record.[5]

After taking a few seasons off, Crandall joined the Sylvie Quillian rink as their alternate for the 2018–19 season. Team Quillian qualified for the playoffs at both the 2019 and 2020 provincial championships, losing in the semifinal in 2019[6] and final in 2020.[7] After the 2019–20 season, Quillian joined the Andrea Crawford team and Melissa Adams took over as skip of the team with Crandall moving up to second. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in New Brunswick, the 2021 provincial championship was cancelled. As the reigning provincial champions, Team Crawford was given the invitation to represent New Brunswick at the 2021 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, but they declined due to work and family commitments.[8] Team Adams was then invited in their place, which they accepted.[9] One member of Team Adams, Justine Comeau, opted to not attend the Scotties, with Nicole Arsenault Bishop stepping in to play second on the team. At the Hearts, they finished with a 3–5 round robin record, failing to qualify for the championship round.[10]

After taking a year off, Crandall formed a new team for the 2022–23 season with third Kendra Lister, second Molli Ward and lead Kayla Russell. The team reached the quarterfinals of the Jim Sullivan Curling Classic where they lost to the Jessica Daigle rink. Entering the 2023 New Brunswick Scotties Tournament of Hearts as the second seeds, the team finished 3–3 through the round robin, enough to earn them a spot in the tiebreaker.[11] There, they were defeated 8–6 by Shaelyn Park.[12]

Melissa Adams rejoined the team for the 2023–24 season as their new skip, shifting Crandall to third, Lister to lead and Russell to alternate. On tour, the team went undefeated to pick up victories at the New Scotland Brewing Co. Cashspiel and the Jim Sullivan Curling Classic, defeating the Heather Smith rink in both finals.[13][14] At the 2024 New Brunswick Scotties Tournament of Hearts, Team Adams won the A qualifier event before losing both the B and C events to Mélodie Forsythe and Sylvie Quillian respectively. In the playoffs, they beat Team Forsythe 8–4 in the semifinal before defeating Team Quillian 7–4 in the provincial final.[15] This earned the team the right to represent New Brunswick at the 2024 Scotties Tournament of Hearts. There, they finished eighth in Pool B with a 2–6 record, defeating the Northwest Territories' Kerry Galusha and Ontario's Danielle Inglis.[16]

Crandall is employed as a teacher with the Anglophone West School District. She has a son, Adam.[2] She graduated from the University of New Brunswick.
