LORD’S FASTBALL TEAM WELCOMES “MILES” OF TALENT TO THE LINEUP Durham Lords Media Release Monday, July 26, 2010
Lord’s fastball team welcomes “Miles” of talent to the lineup OSHAWA, Ont. – Head coach of the Durham College women’s fastball program Jim Nemish is pleased to announce that Whitby native and women’s fastball veteran Kristine Miles has committed to attend Durham College this fall. Heading into the season, the expectations for the women’s fastball team are high and the DC coaching staff is looking forward to see what Miles can add to an already strong squad. “As a coaching staff, we have known Kristine and followed her fastball career for many years,” said Nemish. “I have had the pleasure of coaching her in Midget for one year. She is a very hard working individual and will give nothing less than 100 per cent.” Miles is a pitcher joining the Lords after four years at Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical University, where she was awarded an athletic scholarship and obtained her degree in Physical Education. She received the scholar athlete award all four years at the University and was on the SWAC all-academic team in 2008. In the summer, she has played for a number of rep teams including the Whitby Eagles and the Port Perry Angels. Through out her entire softball career, Miles has pitched two perfect games. “I feel that pitching this season should be the strongest that it has ever been and with attending nationals this fall, that is certainly something to look forward to,” said Nemish. “In speaking with Kristine, she is looking forward and excited to be coming to Durham this fall.” Pitching coaches Mal Swift and Mallory Aldred should have plenty of talent to work with as the one-two punch of Kayla MacLean and Jana Hagan will be returning to the rotation this season. All three pitchers are able to play a second position which adds tremendous depth to the lineup. Before attending university, Kristine attended Anderson C.V.I in Whitby where she was a member of the softball team and the 2006 MVP. It will be a big season for the program as the Lords are set to host the 2010 OCAA championship which is scheduled to take place from October 15-16 and travel to Saskatchewan for the 2010 Canadian Intercollegiate Women's Fastpitch National Championship. - 30 - FOR MORE INFORMATION: Scott Dennis Sports Information and Marketing Coordinator Durham College and UOIT Athletics 905.721.2000 Ext. 2784 (P) 905.721.3117 (F) scott.dennis(at)dc-uoit.ca Al's Fastball News *Email: fastball(at)pmihrm.com fastb...@pmihrm.com NEWS-1: http://www.AlsFastball.com/ NEWS-2: http://fastpitchwest.com/alsfastball VIA http://www.webbox.com
