Gee-Gees go 3-1 on the weekend

from Andrea Nelson

The uOttawa Gee-Gees had another fantastic weekend of play at home, coming out 3-1 at the end. Friday night they took on Queen’s and got ahead of them quickly with the bats in the first game. The power of the Gee-Gees offense produced multiple multi-run innings, and the defense wasn’t very busy as Jean Cardona dominated on the mound once again. The ladies wrapped it up early and mercied Queen’s in a 9-0 victory.

Their second game of the night was again dominated by pitching and offense on the Gee-Gees side. Baylie Gigolyk demonstrated her strength on the mound and came out with one of her best showings of the season so far. After allowing Queen’s one run, the Gee-Gees settled down to allow nothing else and they again finished early beating Queen’s 8-1.

In their second day of play against York, Jean Cardona started things off strong on the mound for the Gee-Gees in the first game. Having steady control of the York offense, the ladies only allowed one run against them early in the game and after that shut down York completely. The bats stayed alive for the Gee-Gees from the day before, again having more than one mult-run inning. The ladies won handily in a 9-1 decision.

The second game proved to be much closer than the first as the York Lions’ bats came alive. The Gee-Gees were not able to find the timely hitting they have been having so much of in recent games, however Taylor Rogalsky did rip a 2-run homerun for the Gee-Gees (her third of the year) in a burst of offense. Unfortunately the Gee-Gees offense could not match York and they fell to the Lions 6-4.
