Great athletes are not coddled and celebrated into greatness; they are forged through rejection, fatigue, failure, and doubt. Toughness, focus, and resilience are qualities that must be challenged before they can be strengthened.

When softball is fun and a big part of your life. You go to the field when you don’t have to!!!.

I can see the difference in Showcase Ball and National Tournaments. Nobody is good at advancing runners when it counts! Always play to WIN THE GAME! Improve your chances of getting recruited. Bunt, hit n run and squeeze! We want champions!.

I don’t know what to say! We had a young team getting better every day. We were getting ready to begin conference games. I hope we are able to salvage some games. This is a first for me. Hurts my ❤️.
