After a 5–3 round-robin record, her team lost in the semifinals against New Brunswick's Justine Comeau. They rebounded in the bronze medal game, defeating Nova Scotia's Cally Moore to claim the bronze medal.[4] Team Lavoie surprised many at the 2019 Quebec Scotties Tournament of Hearts where they took the provincial title by defeating 2018 champion Émilia Gagné in the final.[5] At the 2019 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, the Quebec team struggled, ultimately finishing the week in last place with a 0–7 record.[6] However, Munroe, at age 17, officially became the youngest competitor to ever play in the event.

After a 6–4 round-robin record, Quebec faced Alberta in a tiebreaker, which they lost, eliminating them from contention.[7]
