Gee-Gees go 3 and 1 this past weekend
from Andrea Nelson
October 13th vs Guelph Gryphons
The University of Ottawa Gee-Gees travelled to Guelph this past weekend where they faced the Guelph Gryphons. With rain and plummeting temperatures the weather conditions for Saturday’s games were not ideal, however the Gee-Gees pulled through to dominate early as their bats once again exploded to have multiple multi-run innings, generating 10 runs in total and mercying the Gryphons after only five innings. Defensively the Gee-Gees once again held on strong only giving up two runs, along with excellent pitching from Jean Cardona to secure the win. The second game of the day was not on the Gee-Gees side. Starting pitcher Baylie Gigolyk started off strong but unfortunately the Gryphons were able to hit her more and more as the game went on. With some gapper hits by the Gryphons and some errors in the field, the game quickly fell in favour of Guelph, as they ended up scoring 8 runs to Ottawa’s 1 for the win. Michelle Miller came into the game in the last inning and was able to shut things down against Guelph however unfortunately the damage was already done.
October 14th vs Toronto Varsity Blues
Sunday started off better for the Gee-Gees as they left their loss to Guelph on Saturday behind and started off the first game against U of T with a bang as Baylie Gigolyk went long in her first at bat for her first homerun of the season. The Gee-Gees bats stayed relatively quiet for the majority of the game, however with Jean Cardona dominated the Toronto hitters, Ottawa was able to hold onto the game for a 3-0 win. The second game was similar to the first as there was once again great pitching by the Ottawa Gee-Gees to shut out Toronto for the second game in a row and clutch defensive plays made. The Gee-Gees bats were still not as active as they typically are however with great base-running and timely hitting they were able to generate two runs. Holding off Toronto with their defence, the ladies took the second game for the win at a 2-0 final score.
