The University of Saskatchewan Lady Saxons Fastball team claimed their second National Collegiate title in three years today, at the 2010 Canadian Collegiate Ladies Fastpitch Championship in Saskatoon. The Saxons went undefeated in pool play, but a 2-1 playoff loss to the University of Regina Cougars forced them to take the long way to the championship, where they had to win back to games today. In the semi final Kelsey Garner pitched a perfect game as the Lady Saxons routed Durham College from Oshawa by a score of 9-0. The final game was a nail biter as the coach Earle Woodsides crew trailed 1-0 heading into the top of the 6th inning. In the sixth they exploded for 5 runs off of Regina started Shirrae Muir who had held them to 1 run in the previous 12 innings she had faced them. Tournament MVP Anne Kelly got the rally going as she singled and scored the tying run. The Cougars could not hold back the Saxon rampage as Karmen Coffey, Casey Simpson and Jesse McNabb followed with big hits to pad the lead. Garner who was pitching back to back games, shut the door on the Cougars from that point, ending the game emphatically with a big strikeout. The final was another installment of the huge rivalry between these two schools, who also had battled it out in the league championship game last weekend, with the same result. Four Lady Saxon players came away with individual honors. They had 3 players named to the tournament All-star Team: Pitcher- Natalie Woodside, 2nd base - Anne Kelly and Right Fielder - Casey Simpson. Katherine Guenther was named the top hitter, batting an astounding .800 in round robin play. Anne Kelly was also named playoff round MVP as she recorded 7 hits and scored 4 runs in the Saxons 3 playoff games.
