was the actual reason she was injured slamming her hand in car door? seems farfetched, I cant believe NCAA hasn't already finished investigating who paid for the car.

This is from an article about Lexie on the KPEL 1420 website:

The Ragin’ Cajuns could have the best player in the country back sooner than expected. Lexie Elkins could be playing softball again in less than two weeks.

Louisiana’s Head Coach Michael Lotief broke the news on Monday at his press conference, and he let everyone in on a behind-the-scenes story of Elkins’ unbelievable power.

“I think we’re going to pick her up again soon,” Lotief said. Then he blew everyone’s mind by sharing what Elkins did to pass the time with her injury, “She was out on the field hitting home runs, one-handed.”

One-handed home runs? Is that even possible? Apparently so, if you’re name is Lexie Elkins.

she has more homers than 12 MLB teams. granted mlb has played a few less games, but the innings count is almost identical

I doubt that the professional deal will make any difference.

I don't know what those ladies make in endorsements, but I doubt it's very much. And the league itself has a $150,000 salary cap...for the entire team. Those players arent making much money at all. I'm surprised as many of them actually play in the league at all.

I thought this was notable
