Lords open up the CAN-AM Classic with a win

OSHAWA, Ont. – The Durham College women’s fastball team picked
up a win in the opening game of the CAN-AM Classic on Friday
night as they defeated Mohawk College 14-1. The game also counted
towards the team’s OCAA regular season records, as the Lords
improved to 5-0 to begin the year.

In her first start with the Lords, Nicole McCoy ( Whitby, Ont.)
pitched a gem allowing only one hit and one run (unearned). She
struck out five Mohawk hitters over four innings of work, picking
up the complete game victory.

Shannon Ferguson led the Lords charge at the plate as she was
perfect going 3-for-3 with two RBI’s and one run scored.

Also with three hits on the night was two-time OCAA MVP Erin
Dewey who finished 3-for-4 with three RBI’s and three runs scored.
Dewey leads the OCAA this year in average (.647), runs (11) and
RBI’s (11).

Samantha Roelofsen, Janna Hagan and Kristin Servinis also had
multi-hit nights for Durham.

The game was relatively close in the early stages as Durham held
a 3-1 lead heading into the fourth inning. In the bottom of the
fourth, Durham bats came alive as they scored 11 runs, ending
the game in a mercy.

Durham will look to win their third straight CAN-AM classic title
as they continue action on Saturday morning at 10 a.m. against
Seneca College.
