KARS – The Guelph Gryphons opened their Ontario University Softball season with a pair of one-sided victories over the Carleton Ravens Friday night at the Kars Community Recreation Centre on the banks of the Rideau River south of Ottawa.

The Gryphons downed the Ravens 13-1 in the opener of the doubleheader and they took the nightcap 11-0.

While the Gryphs were 2-18 last season, Carleton was 0-20.

The Gryphs are to play a doubleheader today (Sept. 9) against the Ottawa Gee-Gees at the Carp Fairgrounds starting at 1 p.m.
