DC women’s fastball wraps up weekend series in Rochester

Women’s Fastball
Game One – Monroe defeated Durham 9-1
Game Two – Durham defeated Monroe 7-6

ROCHESTER, NY - The Durham College women’s fastball team split
the final two games of their weekend series in Rochester, NY,
which saw them take three of four games over the three-time National
Junior College champion Monroe Community College.

“ Monroe is always a great test for our team,” said Durham College
head coach Jim Nemish. “It was a great weekend of fastball and
we are now ready to get the regular season started on Friday
night.”

The Lords will host Mohawk College on Friday, September 18 at
Durham Field on campus in their regular season opener. First
pitch is at 6:30 p.m.

Durham came out flat in their first game on Sunday as Monroe
scored five runs in the first inning, with the rally started
by a lead off home run. The Tribunes never looked back in the
contest as they added four more runs to give them an easy 9-1
victory.

Game two was very entertaining as the teams found themselves
in a see-saw match-up. Durham got off to the hot start this time
as Kayla MacLean (Whitby, Ont.) hit a three run triple in the
first inning. She would later score off a Jodi Lang (Walkerton,
Ont.) RBI single. Monroe would bounce back quickly with three
runs over the first two innings but trailing by a run in the
late stages of the game, the Tribunes could not solve relief
pitcher Janna Hagen as the Lords went on to win by a score of
7-6.

Monroe will make the road trip to Oshawa next weekend as Durham
College is hosting the annual CAN-AM Classic from September 19-20.
The Lords enter the tournament as the defending champions.
