Nick Jerulle

Nick Jerulle is an American curler. Jerulle played lead on a team out of Hibbing Curling Club in Hibbing, Minnesota which won the US National Championship two times, in 1959 and 1962.[1] The team was a family affair other than Jerulle, consisting of Fran Kleffman at second, Kleffman's son Terry Kleffman at third, and Fran Kleffman's son-in-law Dick Brown at skip.[2] In 1962 the team went on to represent the United States at the World Championship, which was then called the 1962 Scotch Cup.[3] This was only the second time the United States had competed in the Championship. Jerulle's team finished with a 4-2 record, good enough to earn them the silver medal.
