Subject: Team Canada continues to win at the 2007 Canada Cup International Softball tourn -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For Immediate Release: July 3, 2007, Surrey, British Columbia Team Canada continues to win at the 2007 Canada Cup International Softball tournament. After getting behind in the top of the first inning, Team Canada worked for five runs in the bottom of the frame. Chasing the Georgia Wilson Selects starting pitcher from the game in the bottom of the first inning the Canadian team was not finished there. Team Canada took advantage of a couple of Georgia miscues and ended up scoring 8 runs on 9 hits. Sheena Lawrick and Noemie Marin contributed two hits each to the offensive effort. We are really trying to take our offense to another level says head coach Lori Sippel, and making adjustments in the box is the first step. I felt that the team did a nice job competing at the plate and adjusted well to the three pitchers faced. Defensively, Dione and Tamra settled in a finished strong. In five innings of work, Meier gave up just two hits while striking out 8 Georgia Wilson Select players. One of the two hits was from the Canadian World University Games member Jennifer Yee who is playing for the Georgia team in this years event. Canada now 4-0 takes on Venezuela on Wednesday night at 6:30 pm at Softball City in Surrey BC. Venezuela is one of the teams that will compete in the softball tournament at the 2007 Pan American Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil starting in a few weeks.
