Subject: Gee Gees Fall To Western Mustangs in Sunday double header 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 womens 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 werent 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 couldnt 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 couldnt muster up enough runs to split the doubleheader. The Gee Gees and Mustangs faced one another in the 2008 Ontario Intercollegiate Womens 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.
