ETOBICOKE, Ont: Coming off a mid-week sweep, the Hawks return to action Saturday, as the Fanshawe Falcons come to town for double header action. Fanshawe (1-3) enters this weekend having played two of the toughest teams in the OCAA loop in Durham and St. Clair. Last season, the Hawks went 1-3 in their matchups against the Falcons and are looking to improve on that mark after a strong start to the season.

Last time out vs Fanshawe
In their last meeting, the Falcons traveled to Concord Regional Park to take on the Hawks. In game two of their double header the Hawks needed a win in the tight OCAA race, hoping to secure a play-off spot. Head Coach Duaine Bowles turned to Rachel Matheson-Green to salvage a split in their double header after a 10-3 Falcons win. Matheson-Green turned in one of her best performances of the season allowing one unearned run on 5 2/3 innings of work. The game was a pitcher's duel throughout as the Hawks didn't score their first run until the fifth, as Bonnie Gillingham broke the scoreless game with her first career home run to deep right-centre field. With the Falcons looking to capitalize with bases loaded in the sixth, Myranda Pierson came in to keep the game tied at one. Pierson induced a ground ball to get out of the jam and allowed the Hawks offense to take over. Consecutive hits from Franchetto and Murphy set the table for Terah Camilleri to crack her third homerun of the season and ultimately securing the Hawks their 13th win of the season.
