“Dynamite had a solid game in the field, and Jen Nelson, aka “TENT,” was strong on the mound, holding them to five runs,” said the Dynamite’s Shelly Ouellette, who led the Competition offence with a five-for-five night at the plate, including two triples and two RBIs.
Ageless Sandi Demers went 4-for-4 with an RBI, stellar second baseman Linda Castonguay was 4-for-5 with four ribbies. Sheena Haines was 3-for-4 with two RBIs, shortstop Kristi Spelay added three hits and drove in a pair. Chelsea Adams set the table at the top of the batting order, going 3-for-5, Korri Vandale added three hits and Kiana Lacroix produced an RBI with one of her two hits.
