FUTURE LOOKS BRIGHT FOR GEE GEES DESPITE LOSS


TO OIWFA CHAMPS WESTERN MUSTANGS

 
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
 
OTTAWA, ON September 20, 2009.
 

The University of Ottawa women’s fastball team opened their season
this past weekend with a 2-2 record.  Saturday saw the Gee Gees
best the Windsor Lancers by taking two games.  While the weather
was favourable, the softball gods weren’t smiling on the Gee
Gees Sunday as they lost both games to their arch rivals the
University of Western Mustangs, 8-1 and 10-8.

 

The Gee Gees were slow out of the gate in a 8-1 loss to the Mustangs
in game #1.  They rebounded with a solid effort in game #2. 
Despite opening with a quick 3 runs in the first inning, the
Gee Gees couldn’t hold off the defending champs.  Despite strong
performances from veterans Vanessa HOMIAK (3 for 4 with a HR,
2 singles, 3 runs scored) and 7 solid innings from pitcher Jill
TAYLOR (7 IP, 3 earned runs, 4 strikeouts) the Gee Gees just
couldn’t muster up enough runs to split the doubleheader.

 

The Gee Gees and Mustangs faced one another in the 2008 Ontario
Intercollegiate Women’s Fastpitch Championship game and are the
early favourites to meet again in the 2009 Ontario championships.

 

The Gee Gees next game is scheduled for September 25, 2009 vs.
crosstown rivals the Carleton Ravens.  Time and location yet
to be determined.
