WPCNR PRESS BOX. From the New York Juggernaut Website. July 22, 2005: The Juggernaut with half their season complete stand 22-4 on their 50-game schedule, after splitting a pair with New England Friday night, after battling the elements last week. The team has had a solid July, sweeping the Texas Thunder in Hempstead, taking one from Venezuela after rains washed out the other games in the series, sweeping New England. Getting back to business Friday evening in Hempstead, the Nauts split a pair of games,

In game one, a complete of Thursday evening's suspended game due to a light failure, Ryan Realmuto's three run dinger was all the margin the Nauts needed. With the game suspended after three innings Thursday, it was resumed Friday evenging and the Nauts completed the rout.

In game two, the Riptide turned the tables, whitewashing the Nauts, 2-0, behind newcomer Tammy Nielson will kept the hard-hitting Nauts off balance on 5 hits, beating Peaches James. Former Naut, Kellie Wilkerson homered in the first off the Peach for a 1-0 lead, and other former Naut, Lisa Iancin drove in the second run in the seventh on a sacrifice fly.

Nauts fans await the Chicago Bandits who come to town next weekend for a showdown. The Bandits behind Jennie Finch, lead the league.
