Our girls represented the WMGSA, Waterloo and Ontario well last week at the Eastern Canadian Championships in Mount Uniacke, Nova Scotia going undefeated in 7 games to win the Gold medal!
    
The Ghosts advanced to the finals after beating the Aurora Diggers of Ontario by a score of 8 - 0 in the semis to face the London Lightning in the gold medal game.  
    
In the championship contest the Ghosts broke out to a quick lead against the Lightning and never looked back, winning the game 11 - 2.  
    
Two Ghosts brought home top individual awards. Ashley Black received the award as the Top Pitcher
of the tournament after receiving four Player of the Game awards and recording a perfect game against the Cole Harbour Comets of Nova Scotia. 
    
Katrina Gammie was chosen as the MVP of the Tournament and also received two Player of the
Game awards.
   
This was the second consecutive Eastern Canadian Championship win for three players. Gammie won gold with the Waterloo Ghosts Bantam U16 team last year, and captured the MVP award as well. 
    
Black and teammate Kim Schill, then of the Waterloo Ghosts Midget U18 team were picked up to play
for the Stratford Optimist Flames, who captured the Canadian Tier II Midget girls fastball championship in Montreal.
    
Black was the winning pitcher in the gold medal game, winning the championship MVP award.

Congratulations from everyone ladies!
