Summary |
March 25
@ BayView
(Scrimmage) |
|
The 2002 Townies
looked sharp in
their scrimmage
debut. Kelly
Deschenes, Ciara
Charbonneau, Katrina
Finona and Andrea
Medeiros led the
offensive attack.
The team hit the
ball very well and
displayed very
aggressive
baserunning. The
pitching trio of
Stephanie Normand,
Amanda Shattuck and
Danielle Normand was
very solid keeping
the BayView
baserunners to a
minimum. Overall, it
was an excellent
start for the
Townies with much
work to be done.. |
March 28
Cumberland
(Scrimmage) |
|
Amanda Shattuck and
Stephanie Normand
combined to throw 6
shutout innings.
However, the Townies
lack of hitting
coupled with a very
scrappy Cumberland
team made for a very
competitive
scrimmage. EP had
only two hits in the
game but made the
most of the base
runners given to
them. The Townie
defense also played
well. |
March 30
@Moses Brown
(Scrimmage) |
|
The bats came
alive! Pitchers
Steph Normand,
Amanda Shattuck, and
Danielle Normand
combined to throw a
shutout. Big
hitters on the day
were Jill Berg,
Ciara Charbonneau,
Steph Normand,
Katrina Finona, and
Andrea Medeiros
among others. Some
little defensive
lapses that need
correcting with East
Greenwich waiting on
Monday. |
April 1
@ East Greenwich
|
W 6-0 |
Captain Stephanie
Normand was
outstanding in the
Townies debut.
Normand tossed a one
hitter, added 11
strikeouts and
walked none. The
offense, which was
dead for five
innings came alive
adding 2 runs in the
sixth and 3 runs in
the seventh. Jill
Berg went 3-4 with
two doubles and two
RBI, Katrina Finona
was 2-4 with two
doubles and two RBI
and Ciara
Charbonneau was the
catalyst as she
walked three times
and stole two
bases. An
outstanding
defensive
performance was
turned in by
sophomore shortstop
Marissa Savastano.
Overall a solid
opening for EP. |
April 3

played errorless
ball!! Shattuck

April 17
@ North Kingstown
|
L 1-0 |
The Townies weren't
ready to play in the
first inning and a
good North Kingstown
team took advantage
scoring in the
bottom half of the
first. That would
be all they would
need as sophomore
pitcher Maggie Feix
did the rest. EP's
only hits were by
Jocelyn Nestell and
Katrina Finona. The
Townies' offense has
only mustered two
runs in their last
21 innings of play.
The loss spoiled an
excellent pitching
outing by Stephanie
Normand who drops to
4-1 on the season. |
April 23
West Warwick
|
W 3-0 |
Amanda Shattuck
pitched her second
shutout of the year
while striking out
10 Wizards en route
to a 3-0 victory.
The Townie defense
was once again
strong committing
zero errors. The
defense has been
excellent making
only 11 errors in 9
games. Overall, EP
has 5 shutouts in 9
games played. The
offense was led by
birthday girl Andrea
Medeiros who had two
hits, a run scored
and a stolen base.

scoring Mallery
Andreozzi who had a
pinch hit single in
the fifth inning. |
April 26
@ Westerly
|
L 2-1 |
The Townies lost a
game they shouldn't
have. Steph Normand
struck out 13 out of
a possible 18 outs,
still, the Bulldogs
pulled off the
upset. The Townie
bats have been
silent as they
managed only 3 hits
in the game. EP, who
have lost two out of
the last three
games, drops into
third place behind
Chariho and North
Kingstown with the
loss. Kelly
Deschenes had the
RBI with a double
over the head of the
center fielder. |
April 30
South Kingstown
|
14-4 |
The Townie offense
finally broke out of
its four game slump
slugging 12 hits and
scoring 14 runs in a
14-4 victory over
South Kingstown. EP
played focused and
intense softball for
the entire game.
After surrendering a
3-0 lead in the
third inning, Steph
Normand pitched four
innings of one hit
softball and the
offense scored in
every inning of the
game. Jill Berg
roped a pair of
doubles and singled
in the first inning
driving in 4 runs
for the Townies.
Andrea Medeiros
provided the spark
EP needed as she was
2-2 with 2 walks 3
runs scored and a
pair of stolen
bases. Amanda
Shattuck and Ali
Birkes also provided
big hits and drove
in two runs each.
By far it was the
Townies best game of
the year to date. |

The Townie bats went
silent again as EP
mustered only 2 hits
in the game. Amanda
Shattuck who struck
out 11, allowed 4
hits and 1 earned

the hard luck
loser. Two EP
errors in the second
inning allowed
Pilgrim to take a
1-0 lead. In the
bottom half of the
second EP tied the
game on Danielle
Normand's two out
single to center
scoring Ali Birkes.

|
W 5-0 |
The Townies finished
the week in style
outscoring three
opponents 25-0.

one strike from a
no-hitter but a hard
hit ball eluded an
excellent effort by
second baseman
Danielle Normand.

offense with two
hits and an RBI
each. EP has a huge
week next week with

tomorrow. |
May 15
@ Chariho
|
L 4-3 |
The Townies
committed 6 errors
and squandered a 3-0
lead to the division
leading Chargers.
After scoring 3 runs
in the top of the
4th inning, 3 errors
allowed Chariho to
get two runs back in
their half of the
fourth. More errors
accounted for the
other two runs as
well. Kelly
Deschenes was the
offensive star with
a two-run double in
the fourth inning.
EP lost its fourth
one run game and
needs to learn to
put away teams when
they are ahead,
especially very good
teams like Chariho. |
May 16
North Kingstown
|
L 2-1 |
EP finished a
frustrating week
with yet another one
run loss. North
Kingstown erased a
1-0 lead in the top
of the fifth inning
and scored the
winning run in the
top of the seventh.
Marissa Savastano
had the lone hit for
the 10-5 Townies.
Amanda Shattuck was
the tough luck loser
allowing only 3 hits
while strinking out
6 Skippers. The
Townies are playing
decent softball but
are not putting away
teams when the
opportunity presents
itself. |
May 19
Barrington
|
W 4-1 |
The Townies bounced
back with a solid
win over the upstart

leading 16th stolen
base in 18 games. |

sluggish start, EP
tallied six runs in
the fourth inning
and added 3 more in
the fifth. 7
different hitters
had at least one hit
for EP. The Townies
stand with a record

May 28
@ South Kingstown
|
W 3-1 |
Pitching, defense,
and timely hitting
were the reason the
Townies defeated a
pumped up South

used a good fastball
and mixed in her
changeup to keep the
Rebels off balance.
The defense was led
by great plays from
Danielle Normand,
Jill Berg, Marissa
Savastano, Amanda
Shattuck, and Alison
Birkes. Jocelyn
Nestell singled and
scored on Jill
Berg's double in the
fourth inning. Ali

following play. In
the seventh inning,
Marissa Savastano

Playoffs
St. Ray's
|
W 3-1 |
Amanda Shattuck
fired a one hitter
and the Townie
defense did the rest
as EP downed the
Saints in a
quarterfinal game at
Pierce Field. The
Townies scored all
three of their runs
in the first inning
on a walk by Andrea
Medeiros, a
sacrifice bunt by
Danielle Normand
that Medeiros beat
the throw to second
base. Jocelyn
Nestell followed
with a single that
resulted in a
throwing error,
allowing Medeiros to
score. Jill Berg
then had an infield
single scoring
Normand and Shattuck
drove in Nestell
with a sacrifice fly
to centerfield.
Shattuck was superb
allowing only a
double in the 7th
inning and struck
out six. EP moves
to Notte Park to
play the top seeded
Chargers of Chariho. |
June 8
Playoffs:
Notte Park:
Chariho
|
L 5-2 |
The top seeded
Chariho Chargers
took advantage of
four Townie errors
in the third inning
giving the Chargers
an insurmountable
4-0 lead. EP fought
back in the fourth
inning and added two
runs to cut the
deficit in half but
could not muster
anything else
against the toughest
pitcher in the
state, Jill Kiley.
Andrea Medeiros and
Danielle Normand had
the two Townie
hits. EP now plays
North Providence on
Sunday in a loser's
bracket game at
Pierce Field at
2:00. |
June 9
Playoffs:
N.Providence.
8 innings |
L 4-1 |
As expected, a
pitcher's duel
between last year's
All-State pitcher,
Jamie Plamondon and
EP's Amanda
Shattuck, left both
teams with goose
eggs through five
innings of play. A
safety squeeze
produced an earned
run in the sixth for
NP. In the bottom
of the 7th inning
and EP's season
virtually over,
Mallery Andreozzi
drew a two-out walk
and Kelly Deschenes
delivered a clutch
double to right
center plating
Andreozzi. In the
extra frame, the
Cougars took
advantage of two
Townie errors
leading them to a
4-1 win. Great
Season Townies!!! |
