I guess it matters how many balls she is throwing purposely trying to induce a chase or weakly hit ball.My daughter is 13, her goal was 65% strike rate this summer. 80% seems pretty high.
Wow! That's hard to believe. Sorry to say this but your HS is unqualified. Your DD should ask the coach to include location. I mean we had pitch locations at 10U.The coach simply calls the pitch. Curveball.
There's no location on the armband/card. Does she want it over the plate, off the plate, backdoor, backdoor off the plate?
No one knows...

Maybe have the coach try to catch in that situation?I defend catchers quite often, especially on this team. If a girl throws fast and the catcher has no clue where the ball might go, it's not fair to get on them for some passed balls.
I am having trouble understanding this. Is she getting hit quite a bit? You said the coach came out to talk after a strikeout. How does the coach know your daughter is not hitting locations? Is she standing behind the fence watching? Is the catcher telling her? Is she specifically talking about high/low?
