This morning I was thinking about one of my hitting students, a high school freshman named Amy Abel. Amy goes to Carmel Catholic High School and is playing second base on varsity. (Normally I don't get that specific, but in this case I might as well as you will see.)
I haven't seen much of Amy since her high school season started, and was thinking about emailing her parents tonight to see how things were going. But I didn't have to, Instead, I got an email from them suggesting I read this article.
My first reaction was wow! If you didn't follow the link, the highlights are that after four games she is leading the team in batting with a .600 batting average, and has hit five doubles in the first couple of weeks. Again, this is as a freshman. That's pretty darned cool.
Attention college coaches: this is a girl you'll probably want to keep an eye on. Think of where she'll be in three more years!
