Snappers Advance to GHFL Semi Finals

The Niagara Snappers advanced to the GHFL semi finals with a 2-1 win over the Mississauga Arrows.  The contest was resumed in the bottom of the 3rd inning from a previous rain delay with the score tied at 1-1.  Lead off hitter Jarrod Burtt hit a solo home run to put Niagara up on top 2-1.  Pitchers Byron Demoe and Jamie Simpson split the 4 innings of work, both pitchers not allowing a hit with Demoe striking out 5 batters and Simpson striking out 3 batters.  Simpson picked up the win in the contest.  Mike Bateman continued to lead the offense with a 2-3 game including a single and a triple with Scott Young also chipping in with a single and a triple. 

Niagara is trying to co-ordinate the semi finals against the Hamilton Hawks, which will hopefully take place on Wednesday September 24th at 7:30pm at Lancaster Park in St. Catharines.
