Funny, 3 pages of actual results from a college recruiting camp and I only see a couple 60+ mph's. They must be going to the wrong parks. Just ask anyone that practices at my local park. There are at least a half dozen girls throwing 60. Just ask their dads.
The numbers are fairly meaningless with out knowing age. You'll have girls from 13-18 at those camps. Doubtful that most bluechips even go to them. There are girls that throw in the 60's and even 70's, but I'm sure they're already verbaled/signed.
Sure, when I hear a 12yo's dad telling me his girl has a 58mph FB, I chuckle inside. But the ones who really do, they get noticed. You better believe coaches have those guns at tryouts. If you've got your choice of the girl who can throw 48-50 with movement, or the girl who throws 40-42 with movement; who do you pick up?
