Louis Quevillon (born May 14, 1997) is a Canadian curler from Lacolle, Quebec.[2] He currently plays third on Team Yannick Martel.
Quevillon won his first Quebec Junior Curling Championship in 2018, playing third for Alek Bédard with Émile Asselin at second and Bradley Lequin at lead.[3] This qualified them for the 2018 Canadian Junior Curling Championships, held January 13–21 in Shawinigan, Quebec. At the championship, the team finished the round robin with a 4–2 record, which was enough to qualify them for the championship pool. They then lost three of their four games, finishing the tournament in seventh place with a 5–5 record.[4] Team Bédard aged out of juniors the following season and began competing on the World Curling Tour. In their three events, they finished runner-up at the Finale du Circuit and reached the semifinals at both the Experience Curling Classic and the Vic Open Assurances Jean Gamache.[5] At the 2019 WFG Tankard, they missed the championship round with a 3–3 record.
During the 2019–20 season, Team Bédard competed in four tour events but only found success in one, the Challenge Casino de Charlevoix, where they reached the semifinals.[6] At the 2020 Quebec Tankard, the team qualified for the championship round with a 5–1 record. They then went 2–1 in their next three games, good enough to earn them a spot in the 3 vs. 4 page playoff game. They then defeated Martin Ferland 9–8 in the 3 vs. 4 game, upset Mike Fournier 9–8 in the semifinal and beat Vincent Roberge 7–2 to claim the championship title.[7] [8] Their win earned them a berth to the 2020 Tim Hortons Brier in Kingston, Ontario.[9] There, they finished with a 1–6 record, only managing to beat Team Nunavut.[10]
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Quebec, the 2021 provincial championship was cancelled.[11] Curling Québec then decided to select Team Fournier to represent Quebec at the 2021 Tim Hortons Brier, meaning Team Bédard would not have the opportunity to repeat as back-to-back provincials champions.[12]
Team Bédard had a strong start to the 2021–22 season, reaching the final of the Moosehead Classic. They then won the Challenge Nord-Ouest Air Creebec, beating the Jean-Sébastien Roy rink in the final game.[13] They had two more playoff appearances during the season at the Challenge Casino de Charlevoix and the Finale du Circuit where they reached the quarterfinals and semifinals respectively.[14] The Quebec Tankard was once again cancelled due to the pandemic and the Fournier rink was appointed as the provinces representatives, ending Team Bédard's season.[15]
Quevillon is currently a mechanical engineering student at École nationale d'aérotechnique.[2]
