    Softball during Final Exams

    So, how is it possible to play your conference tournament during final exams week!? DD *survived* her first DI fall semester, but looking at the spring softball schedule the conference tournament starts the same day as finals week. How's that going to work!?

    The DI + CS Challenge Begins!

    DD just got her fall DI softball practice schedule and told to select her *candidate* fall classes schedule to fit around the practice schedule that is 1 pm - 5 pm SIX days per week (Wed off!) not including the weight room which she was told usually is in the early morning hours (6-7 am)...

    Ugliest Power 5 DI Softball in Years!?

    Is it just me, or is this the ugliest year of Power 5 DI softball ever!? I've never seen SO MANY Es, HBPs, and BBs by supposedly *the best of the best* teams and pitchers in DI. SMH Sunday's Oklahoma vs Oklahoma State game is a perfect example. OSU makes 3 errors in the top of the 3rd inning...

    Great College Showcase Game in Front of D1 Coach

    DD (2021) just pitched a great game while the D1 assistant coach who is responsible for recruiting, stood directly behind home plate backstop the entire game. This is the the same coach who invited her to their recruiting camp this past Labor Day weekend where she did great. He also called DD TB...

    2021 DD Coach Follow Up

    As mentioned in previous threads, DD is a 2021 who was invited to a D1 college recruiting/prospect camp (i.e. not a money-grab) on Labor Day weekend and was probably in the top 2-3 out of 15 pitchers and hitters. So, DD followed up with an email that included her detailed player profile and her...

    Yesterday at the Great Lakes Premier Showcase, DD pitched a great win and went 3 for 3 with 4 RBI including a single, double, and this HR which easily cleared the 12 ft high 200' fence: https://drive.google.com/file/d/10rvIsGRHRujGcixI0tniAZBKO8Ve35O8/view. She got suckered by the first pitch...

    Is H.S. ball worth the time?

    DD is a freshman pitcher/starter on a *B* conference H.S. team that just finished its first winning season in six years (brag: in large part to her pitching and hitting 3rd, since she was the only freshman starter). The problem is that in our area, high school softball is a joke, her coach is...

    realistically playing 2 div I sports?

    DD just started high school and has played club-level softball and field hockey since she was 7. We've told her she needs to choose one or the other in order to compete for div I rosters and scholarships. She currently plays for a softball club team that's probably the #1 club team *in our...

    Poll: B team playing some innings or C team playing every inning?

    Would it be better to have your daughter who is a pitcher on a 12U C team that has 9 players and only 1 other pitcher, or on a 12U B team that already has 3-4 pitchers with 12-16 players already on the roster? On the one hand, she is guaranteed to play every inning of every game including 50%...
