    UTD Asst Coach Passes Away-RIP Abby Sterling

    Super sad news. Found out over the weekend that DD's former UTD asst coach passed away. No details as to the cause of death as they found in her bed. My first interaction with Abby left a lasting impression. Abby exuded strength, confidence and positivity. I knew that she could be a head...

    Is it necessary to post this score?

    Could they have just posted something like, "The ducks got some great work in today. Thank you to Corban for coming out." Especially with it being a 10 inning scrimmage with them putting players on bases in some innings.

    My message to the Anonymous parent. Get used to it. It will happen in HS and College as well. https://extrainningsoftball.com/to-mr-mrs-anonymous-extra-inning-softballs-ceo-hopes-you-will-read-this-its-just-for-you/ DD got 2nd Team All Conference for her position this season. Here are the...

    It's official!!!

    I am officially out of the loop! DD's former college team is creating a New Group for the '23/'24 parents. They are moving on without me. DD has her alumni game in October and I am not going go. Now my focus will be on DD2's college football team.

    If you want to play college softball, there is a place for you.

    Yesterday, I stumbled across a social media account of DD's former 14U TB teammate, and was surprised to she she is playing college softball for the past several years. This player was at the very bottom of the team as far as skill set is concerned. I don't think she even made the JV roster as...

    Tryout Season

    Now that 16U/18UPGF and Alliance has finished, Tryout season will begin in a couple of weeks. Who is going to leave their teams and why? Who is staying and why? Who has no idea what they want to do?

    Little League Regionals

    Kudos to Espn for showing these teams. But dang. Lots of this play is so hard to watch. I can tell some of these pitchers are brought in as mercenaries and have TB experience. The defense is just plain bad in some of the games. I don't think ESPN should be showcasing these games vs...

    UT DALLAS moving to D2

    Looks like DD's former college program will be moving up to D2 in the competitive LSC conference. Makes sense with an enrollment of 31,000 students and they are a state school. Now they can offer athletic money. Lots of strong academic student athletes shied away from UTD because they didn't...

    Jordy Bahl transfers!

    Wow! This is huge news. I think it would be more satisfying helping a mediocre team win than an awesome team that is supposed to win. https://extrainningsoftball.com/jordy-bahl-leaving-oklahoma/

    Portal Stuff

    I just saw a Tik Tok that parodies (THADDOII)College football recruiting but I thought it could be relatable to softball as well. LSU coach gets a call from a kid that is the back up QB at USC who didn't get any playing time. He was a 5 star HS recruit Senior year that the coach was...

    6th grade Verbal Commit--the middle of the story

    I wondered what had happened to this player since committing. Sounds like she's working hard. https://extrainningsoftball.com/the-redemptive-story-of-alexia-carrasquillo-the-youngest-commit-in-softball-history-her-subsequent-baptism-by-fire-water/

    Bri Ellis Enters Portal

    Very surprised. I think she wants an opportunity to play in the WCWS. OU perhaps? She's a former Impact Gold player, so Jazz Jackson can help her find a new home. Wonder if something happened in the dugout with team/coaches after they got eliminated? During her Jr year she was committed to...

    It is done!

    DD graduated and moved home last week. She played her last game as well. She fizzled out towards the end but had an amazing career. She caught every game this year and was wore out mentally and physically. She hit some milestones and records even with 2 Covid shortened years...

    Player Ejected-College Softball

    Got a text from a dad yesterday. D3 game in Texas. His DD's teammate got ejected. Game was suspended due to weather and she was talking to her parents outside of the playing field. She said "these Umps suck" One of the umps heard her and was ejected from playing the remainder of the game...

    Suspended Game-Stats?

    DD was having a great night in a non conference DH last night. She hit the game winning hit in the first game and she hit 2 HR's in her first two AB's in the second game. Bottom of the 3rd inning they called the game due to rain. She would have been tied for 2nd in career HR's, but in the...

    2 Career Records broken

    DD hit several milestones and records this weekend. The first is Career HBP record for her school's program. Also, broke the career record for career Grand Slams with her 3rd. She played her 100th game and her last AB on Saturday was her 300th. She is now in the top 5 in career HRs and...

    Catcher Ejected

    If I knew how to attach a video from my lap top I would. Another dad sent me the video clip from this weekend's D3 College Game. Runner on 3rd. Pitch is thrown down and inside. Catcher is forced to go down and to her left to get the ball. Batter avoids the ball. Runner at 3rd makes her...
