Durham Lords Media Release Sunday, September 13, 2009 DC womenÂ’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.
