After posting 32 wins and 382 strikeouts in 2013, Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns pitcher Jordan Wallace has been named to the Top 50 "Watch List" for the 2014 USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year award, as announced by USA Softball on Wednesday.
The fifty BEST softball players in the nation are on this list. Great for Jordan. Great for the program. She is a top-notch pitcher. Lots of pressure on this one. She's got to have some help in the circle. If she gets it, iut could be the World Series in June.
What are the thoughts on Hamilton, will she bounce back after her injury and subpar last season.
I hope so. Victoria Brown is coming back from a slight injury. The two freshmen, Alex Stewart and Macey Smith, threw a bunch in the fall and both looked very good at times. I think one of them beat Baylor in the fall at the Spring Klein tournament.Quote:

Geaux Cajuns!!!
That sure is some good reading there Mr. MelRock
Thanks
Season tickets ordered.
Thanks for putting this together. I hope she does end up at the top for each of these. She is very good. Brooke will be difficult to topple, but it is possible.
In fact, the NCAA passed a rule maybe 4-5 years ago to limit the number of games a team can play in the season to 55. Post season play is added to those 55. Monica Abbott, in her day, pitched, if I am not mistaken, 70 games in one season. Then, there was the post season. This was the reason the rule came into being. Monica Abbott. So, no, there are fewer games now than when the majority of these record setting games were played.
I received my softball tickets today so I have to believe baseball is not far behind.
Geaux Cajuns!
