Lizotte only saw 3 batters reached first base on walks , 6 fielding outs and 10 strike outs . It was the first victory of the season for the Hounds . Terry Kutchke led the way for the Hounds with a perfect 3 for (triple) with teammate Bryan Welsh also hitting 3 for 3 (all singles ) ..Pat Brennan started and suffered the loss with brother Ed Brennan taking over in 5th inning . The final score was 7-0 .
In the nightcap , the undefeated first place North Stars continued their winning ways in blasting the First Nation Seminoles 13 to 7 . Brad Matheson , the starter , was the winner with Lanny Fichette moping up in the 5th frame .. Percy Tobobondung started for the Seminoles (taking the loss) with Pat Brennan Jr taking over in the 5th frame . Brad Matheson help his own cause in going 3 for 3 while Moe Coutu hit 2 for 3(triple) in a losing cause for the Seminoles ..
