Thanks for the story Eric, looks like it's headed toward a great 'ending' for Maddie I wish her continued success and good health.
I found in my time as parent and coach at 18U that it is important to separate what's possible and what's best. It is really incredible that with hard work many fast pitch players can play at a college level of some sort. It's just important to let the player figure out the best and dare I say happiest path forward and what they want their end goal to really be.
Maddie has had some serious interest from a few D1 schools, which has been nice, but I'm proud of Maddie for recognizing that a different path is a better choice for her.
