U14 SEAHAWKS SOAR IN HOME OPENER
The Goderich Peewee girl's began their Huron Perth Fastball League season on May 15th versus the Londesborough Legends

The 2017 edition have many returning players from last season, but, also have a nice mix of new players to the club.
Veteran hurler, Payton S., had a strong outing in this opener scattering five hits over four innings for the victory. Payton struck out seven Legends while not issuing a walk in her night of work. Battery mates, Ava Fitzgerald, Katie Ridsdale, and, Kate Johnston did a good job behind the plate for the Seahawks all game.On the diamond, the locals benefitted from some excellent fielding by Jamie Archambault who calmly silenced several Londesborough at bats with throws to the sure handed Zoe Milne!!
The offence exploded in the 1st inning, and, never really stalled the entire game as the potent Seahawk line up scored consistently with contributions from everyone. Brianna M. pounded out a bases loaded triple in the first inning to bring home Emily H, Bella M, and, Jamie A. The top of the order led  by Jaimy L and Grace T did a fantastic job scoring five times in six total plate appearances. Other notable efforts in this opener were the performances of the two "new" players to the game. Abby A., who hadn't played in three seasons, did a nice job of putting the bat on the ball while scoring once. Hannah K., having never played ball before, drew two walks, and, did a great job of hitting the ball to the right side of the diamond in earning her first RBI of her career. Coach, Glen Ditner, was impressed with the opening 20-10 victory, but, cautioned that there is still much learning to be done as the team moves forward in their season. The peewees now have two weeks to practice as they prepare for their first stiff test of the season.
