Lords win back-to-back games in Rochester

Women’s Fastball
Game One – Durham defeated Monroe 10-5
Game Two – Durham defeated Monroe 11-5

ROCHESTER, NY - The Durham College women’s fastball team looked
impressive in their season opener as they swept the first two
games of their weekend series against the three-time National
Junior College champion Monroe Community College in Rochester,
NY.

The Lords took the opening game by a score of 10-5 behind the
power of 2008 OCAA Player of the Year Erin Dewey (Port Hope,
Ont.) who picked up a home run and a triple with three RBI’s.
Danielle Smith ( Oshawa, Ont.) picked up the win while freshman
Janna Hagan (Sherwood Park, Albt.) pitched two innings of relief.

In game two, Dewey was back at it again as she hit another home
run and a single, as the Lords used a seven run fifth inning
to get past Monroe 11-5. Kayla MacLean (Whitby, Ont.) was credited
with the win coming in relief of the starter Hagan.

“It was a good start to the season,” said Durham College head
coach Jim Nemish. “Our team played tight defence and hit the
ball well. We will look for more of the same play tomorrow against
this tough ball club.”

The Lords will be back on the diamond tomorrow morning as they
wrap up the four game set against Monroe. Durham will begin OCAA
regular season action on Friday, September 18 with their home
opener against Mohawk College at 6:30 p.m.

Durham will host the annual CAN-AM Classic from Saturday, September
19-20 at Durham Field on Campus. Last year, the Durham Lords
defeated Monroe 3-0 to claim the CAN-AM Classic title.
