Ontario Claims Gold in Landmark Women’s Baseball Debut at Canada Games

ST. JOHN’S, NL – The debut of women’s baseball at the 2025 Canada Summer Games delivered an unforgettable week in St. John’s, where outstanding play on the field was matched by incredible support in the stands. As the sport made its historic first appearance at the Games, the competition did not disappoint, showcasing the depth of talent and passion for women’s baseball across the country.

Ontario captured history in St. John’s, earning the first-ever women’s baseball gold medal at the Canada Games with an 8–5 victory over Alberta. Ontario opened the scoring in the first inning and broke things open with a five-run fourth, sparked by clutch hits from Zoe McGregor (Oshawa, ON), Sophia Horton-Moulton (Simcoe, ON), and Olivia Westfall (Etobicoke, ON).

Alberta clawed back in the fifth as Kamryn Kutzner (Okotoks, AB) launched a two-run homer to trim the deficit, but Ontario’s offense answered again in the seventh to keep the pressure on.

Starter Jadyn Sagert (Bradford, ON) carried the load on the mound, striking out seven in a gritty effort to seal the win and secure the historic gold.
