Remarkably in the storied history of the St. Clair men's baseball program, no Saint had ever pitched a no-hitter. That was until Oct. 5, when Barrios took the mound against Seneca. Throwing a complete game five innings in a 10-0 win, Barrios allowed no hits, striking out eight batters while walking only two. Barrios, who has pitched a team-high 27 2/3 innings, leads the OCAA in strikeouts with 38 for an average of 1.4 per inning. He is also among the leaders with an ERA of 2.02. St. Clair (10-5) remains in a race with Humber (11-3) for the regular season title with play concluding this week.

In winning gold, Code set Fanshawe golf records for best one-day score (65), two-day score (137) and three-day score (209). He was also the only OCAA golfer to shoot under par for the tournament. Code finished three strokes ahead of the silver medalist. He was named a CCAA All-Canadian and member of the OCAA All-Ontario Team. Code will now compete for a national championship later this month.

Program: Pre-Service Fire Fighting
Year of Eligibility: 1

Feasby was instrumental in helping Seneca earn a 4-1 record in inter-division play on the weekend. The first-year forward scored a try in all five matches, highlighted by a hat trick in a 34-29 win against host Fleming. Feasby set up a number of scoring plays for the Sting as the team averaged nearly 30 points per match. Feasby has helped lead Seneca to an 8-3 record and second place in the OCAA West Division standings.

Conestoga has won three straight, including a key 10-8 win over Fanshawe on Oct. 4 to keep its post-season hopes alive. With Fanshawe (12-12) idle the rest of the regular season, Conestoga (11-9) plays doubleheaders against Humber (16-4) and Mohawk (5-15) needing two wins to secure a playoff berth.
