Curling career
He played at the 1998 Winter Olympics as alternate for Tim Somerville's team, where USA men's team finished in fourth place.[1][2] In 2007 he played second for Mike Farbelow when they won the Minnesota State Championship[3] and then won the United States Men's Club Championship.[4][5]
Solin has won the United States Senior Men's Championship three times, in 2011 and 2016 with Geoff Goodland as skip and 2017 with Mike Farbelow as skip.[6] Winning Senior Nationals earns the team the chance to represent the United States at the World Senior Curling Championships; Solin's first trip to World Seniors in 2011[7] has been his most successful, earning the silver medal when they lost to Canada's Mark Johnson in the final.[8] At the 2016 World Seniors Team Goodland again made it to the playoffs, but lost to Denmark in the quarterfinals.[9] In 2017 Solin's team failed to make the playoffs, finishing the round-robin with a 3–4 record.[10]
