Today I went recruiting on my old stomping grounds.
Baby Bella played on these fields, spent years competing on this dirt, coached my Glory pups here & now recruiting here for my state school.
Are you kidding me? In awe. So grateful. God is good. 💙⚔️🧡

While turf fields look so nice…the best part of softball is having your uniform dirty head to toe and I feel like it takes away from the game😭

You’re a college athlete for 5% of ur life. The impact you have on the next generation of young female athletes is at a high. It’s up to you how you choose to use it. Be the woman you needed to see when you were young. Act like 10 yr old you is in the stands & looking up to you.

So many athletes/coaches/parents immediately go to adjustments in mechanics after a bad AB. The first 2 questions should always be
1.Did I swing at the right pitch?
2.Was I on time?
If the answer is no to either of those questions, the rest simply DOES NOT MATTER!

The best coaches make you feel cared for as a human being first, and a player second.

You will never EVER regret doing the extra work. You will never regret going to the gym or getting extra reps when you don’t feel like it. But you will regret not doing those things. Ask yourself how you WANT to FEEL? Not what you feel in the moment.

My young catchers out there:
We can’t work on making borderline pitches into strikes until we can KEEP strikes, strikes. Don’t do too much when you don’t need to.

I had a lesson come in the other day and when I asked her what she wanted to work on she says:
“Let’s bunt. Teach me how to do it well. That’s what my team needs right now, someone who can put the bunt down consistently.”
Obsessed.

What a feeling it is to sit in your present challenges and think back to yourself a year ago realizing you wouldn’t be able to handle a quarter of what you can now. Reminder to take pause to recognize how much more you have to go but be so grateful for how far you’ve come!💙🧡

Friendly reminder for all my women out there…don’t be afraid to take up space at the gym. Even in a male dominated gym. Get in there, get it done and don’t cut your set short for any man, ever.
& men…let’s not be hovering over women waiting for the equipment. Wait your turn🙂

So many emotions. My heart still mourns softball Bella and misses it more than anything.

I talk to umpires ALL the time. That was my job behind the plate! They are very open. A lot of them.
I’m talking about the Tennessee baseball player that yelled at the umpire and cussed at him. Not if umpires are open to talking about that kinda stuff.

team 46 is a special one. it’s GAME DAY! let’s OWN the moment today.
"That's really what it comes down to, just really wanting it."
With 14 games in the books, Bella Norton (
@b_nort44
) and the Hoosiers are still looking for more, setting the bar high ahead of conference play beginning.

This time in travel ball is interesting. So many emails from PARENTS expressing interest in my upcoming team. This morning I received my first email from the actual player instead of their parent. That stuck with me-I LOVED hearing from the PLAYER. I want to see more of that.

“You look big”
“Why do they make you lift so much?”
“How much do you weight now?”
“Maybe you should stop lifting your arms are getting pretty big...”
No no no....I EMBRACE my muscles, and LOVE being a strong woman. Don’t let anyone take that away from you.
