It has been my experience that players play more timid when they are constantly looking over their shoulder to see if someone might be coming off of the bench to replace them. Put your best fielding hitters out there and use the DP role for you next best hitter. If a player goes into a prolonged slump, they can be replaced to give them some time to figure things out. As far as for pitching, so far the reality hasn't lived up to the expectations. Last night and in some of the games last weekend, it seemed like pitchers were being called to nibble the corners or thrown low in the zone to induce the hitter to chase. Sometimes you just have to go right at the girl hitting .152 instead of calling pitches to induce her to swing at some junk.

Agreed. I prefer the philosophy "If they can't score, they can't win" and then have an offense that produces runs in different ways. Coach Glasco seems enamored with power and speed on offense, but not with bunting and sacrificing.

If you have that elite defense and you put a run or two on the board early, it just puts so much pressure on the other team.

I think Coach Glasco is a good coach and even better man. Rooting for him to put it all together.

Lastly, I will say this, with what appears to be many changes of philosophy on hitting and fielding this season, getting off to a slow start is not all that surprising. The two things that REALLY matter is winning the conference and playing our best softball at the end of the season. There is more than enough talent on this team, that if we are playing our best at the end of the season, we have more than a puncher's chance at getting to OKC.

So what, Texas Tech vacated two wins vs Louisiana and in the quarter centry since has never updated thier official record.

Neither has Louisiana.

Now we dont want to keep track of wins and losses but obsess about parking
