Nicole Arsenault Bishop (born October 28, 1981) is a Canadian curler from Riverview, New Brunswick.[1]
Career
Arsenault Bishop played in her first New Brunswick Scotties Tournament of Hearts in 2015 as second for the Melissa Adams rink. They defeated Shannon Tatlock in the semifinal before losing the final to the Sylvie Robichaud rink.[2] The following year, she left the Adams rink and joined the Robichaud team as their alternate. They would go on to win the 2016 New Brunswick Scotties Tournament of Hearts and represent New Brunswick at the 2016 Scotties Tournament of Hearts where they finished with a 2-9 record.[3] In 2016, she moved up to play second. They couldn't defend their provincial title, losing the tiebreaker to Sarah Mallais. The following year, Arsenault Bishop's former teammate Melissa Adams joined the team at third. It proved to be a successful addition as the Robichaud rink won the 2018 New Brunswick Scotties Tournament of Hearts.[4] They would have more success this time at the National Championship, finishing the new pool play format with a 4-3 record. This placed them fifth in their pool, not enough to qualify for the Championship Pool. The following season, her rink would win the 2018 Tim Hortons Spitfire Arms Cash Spiel on the World Curling Tour.[5]
Personal life
Arsenault Bishop is employed as the executive director and registrar of the New Brunswick Association of Dietitians.
