NightOwls Outlast Dudes in Entertaining Game at Serauxmen

Published

on

NANAIMO — Friday night baseball certainly agrees with the NightOwls faithful, who kept an energy throughout a 4-2 win over the visiting Redmond Dudes at historic Serauxmen Stadium.

Both teams mustered six hits, with third baseman Cowboy Cole Carmichael (ELAC) leading the way for Nanaimo with a 2-4 day, scoring one of the NightOwls runs. Riley Paulino, Ayden Hadley, Deshon Thomas and Tui Ickes, with a double, had the other Nanaimo hits in front of more than 1,800 spectators.

Aidan Boice started for the NightOwls, an opener putting in a scoreless inning. Newcomers Jake Schumacher (Saint Martins) and Moosa Nonomiya (Skagit Valley), the latter striking out three batters, both went two innings, with single inning outings from Tahj Orona, David Stewart, Armaan Drar and Ryan Inouye, who earned the save with a strikeout to end the game.

The game was the first of three in a non-league series at Serauxmen, with the Dudes — great name! — in the Harbour City for games Saturday night (6:35pm) and Sunday afternoon (1pm). Saturday’s big promotion is a chance to win a trip for four to Toronto thanks to YCD Nanaimo International Airport, while Sunday’s matinee game will provide a chance to win a trip to Las Vegas through Nanaimo Mitsubishi.

The NightOwls scored all their runs in the third inning, when Nanaimo mustered four hits and a walk, helped by an error by the Dudes catcher.

The NightOwls next see WCL action when they host the island rival Victoria HarbourCats on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at Serauxmen Stadium, games that are part of the nine games the two teams will face each other this first half of the season. All the game starts are 6:35pm. The HarbourCats currently have a 2-1 edge in the race for the ReMax Generation Alex Burns Real Estate Island Cup.

Victoria HarbourCats – HarbourCats Arnett honoured as WCL Pitcher of the Year

Published

on

August 24, 2026

Victoria, BC – The Victoria HarbourCats are pleased to announce that Pitcher Jeremiah Arnett (Rice) has been honoured as the West Coast League Pitcher of the Year for 2026.

Arnett was simply outstanding all season and in his 10 appearances, all starts, he built a record of 5-2, an ERA of 2.15 and struck out 66 batters. He led the league in all three of those statistical categories (among eligible pitchers), ergo winning the league’s pitching Triple Crown.

“Jeremiah’s recognition as Pitcher of the Year is the ultimate reward for a young man who possesses an unwavering professionalism and a genuine passion for his craft,” said HarbourCats Head Coach Todd Haney.

“To secure the league’s triple crown and shatter our franchise strikeout record requires immense talent, dedication and discipline. Our entire organization is incredibly proud of Jeremiah.”

In addition to being the HarbourCats Pitcher of the Year, a 2026 North Division All-Star and a First Team All-WCL Selection, Arnett now adds the title of West Coast League Pitcher of the Year to his resume.

“Jeremiah is a phenomenal person and player, and I’m extremely proud of his selection as the WCL Pitcher of the Year,” added HarbourCats Pitching Coach Zach Swanson. “Every single day, on and off the field, he was relentlessly seeking to improve his process, knowing it would turn into desired results on the mound.”

Arnett, who will be entering his Senior year at Rice, becomes the second HarbourCat in franchise history to have received Pitcher of the Year honours, the other being Jack Owen (Auburn) in 2017. Owen was drafted in 2019 by St. Louis and then went on to have a four year minor league career in the Oakland A’s system.

“Jeremiah Arnett was every bit as dominant on the mound, and it’s fitting he joins Owen in Victoria’s history books,” said WCL Commissioner Rob Neyer in a statement. “Both of these players represent exactly what makes summer collegiate baseball special.”

Season Ticket Memberships for the 2027 HarbourCats Season are now available for purchase or renewal. New members may order their seats on-line if desired at http://harbourcats.com/tickets (click the Memberships tab), or by calling the office at 778-265-0327. Existing members who have accounts in good standing on SHOWPASS can simply log into their account to renew, or can also call the office or pop in to pay for their 2027 seats.

The HarbourCats 2027 schedule is expected to be announced in late October 2027, with single-game tickets expected be to available by December 1, 2027.

August 20, 2026

Victoria, BC – The West Coast League announced their 1st and 2nd “All-WCL” teams and Honourable Mentions today and the HarbourCats are pleased to have five HarbourCats who earned recognition for their stellar play in 2026.

Leading the way were pitchers Jeremiah Arnett (Rice) and Erik Rico (Fresno State), both of whom earned ALL-WCL First Team honours.  Arnett was simply brilliant this year, winning the WCL pitching triple crown with five wins, 66 strikeouts and a 2.15 ERA to headline the first-team pitching selections. Rico was not far behind with 64 strikeouts and a 1.82 ERA. Both were named to the 2026 North Division All-Star team in July and Rico won Pitcher of the Week honours in early July.

All-WCL Second Team honours went to another 2026 All-Star David Krahn (UBC) and to pitcher Davis Lee (Hawaii-Hilo).  Krahn finished the year with a .307 batting average, with 31 RBI and nine home runs, a new HarbourCats single season record.  Lee was quietly impressive on the mound, appearing in 13 games and amassing a record of 3-0 and an ERA of 2.95 with 35 strikeouts in 21.1 innings of work.

Finally, earning Honourable Mention was HarbourCats Designated Hitter Logan Shepherd (Mercer). An All-Star in 2025, Shepherd had another solid season for the ‘Cats in 2026 finishing with a .286 average with four home runs and 26 RBI.  His four home runs put him two shy of the HarbourCats career franchise record.

HarbourCats 2027 Season Tickets and 12 and 24-Game Flex packs will soon be on sale and available for renewal, with single-game tickets anticipated to be on sale in early December once the 2027 schedule is announced. Keep an eye on the HarbourCats website and social media for more information.
