This year, Newtonville Roadrunners are in the Lake- shore Ladies Fastball Assoc- iation, against Junior and Intermediate teams from Co- bourg, Bowmanville, Hastings and Lakefield.

Joany Willems pitched both games, limiting Lakefield to only 5 hits and iving up il to Hastings. A total of 30 Roadrunners struck out in the two games, including 22 on Monday night. Joanne Vogels recorded the Roadrunners lone hit against Lakefield, while Alida Becker, June Kimball, Allison Rahm and Irene Vogels recorded hits against Hastings.
