Durham Lords Media Release Friday, September 18, 2009 Smith pitches a no-hitter in Lords home opener Womens Fastball: Durham defeated Mohawk 13-1 *Durham College pitcher Danielle Smith threw a no-hitter OSHAWA, Ont. Durham College womens fastball ace Danielle Smith (Oshawa, Ont.) threw a gem in the 2009 home opener as she pitched a no-hitter as the Lords defeated Mohawk College 13-1 in five-innings. The energetic opening night crowd witnessed Smith at her best as she struck out five Mohawk hitters and allowed zero walks and hits. Mohawks only run on the night came after two Durham fielding errors, costing the Lords the shutout victory. The teams were scoreless after the first three innings play and Mohawk took a 1-0 lead in the top of the fourth. That is when Durham busted things wide open as they scored seven runs in the fourth inning followed by six runs in the fifth giving them the 13-1 victory. Durhams bats were in full force as five players recorded two hits including Erica Dewey (Port Hope, Ont.), Carolyn Moore (Oshawa, Ont.), Erin Dewey (Port Hope, Ont.), Jodi Lang (Walkerton, Ont.) and Kayla MacLean (Whitby, Ont.). The Lords will now turn their attention to the CAN-AM Classic at Durham Field that takes place this weekend as the team will face Mohawk College at 11 a.m. The first game of the tournament will also count as an OCAA league game.
