Burnt Roux: Denham Departs

[raginrayne]

alyssa denham just announced that she is transfering to arizona.

[Hudsheen#Fired]

So we are losing our top 2 pitchers and our best hitter?
Damn

[shof]

Bummer! Hope we can pick up a quality transfer pitcher or 2!

[JMV JustMyView]

What two pitchers did we lose?

[RaginScotsman]

That really sucks. I hope Glasco can pick up a quality arm. We need it badly now.

[ManAboutTown]

Good luck to her.

Hard fact is, we need better pitching anyway.

Agree 100%...And we now have two real pitching coaches...We will be ok...There is some kids on the roster that we will develop.

At least she told the team weeks ago she was leaving & did not tell them she was staying like DJ

Softball insiders-any reason to panic? Losing the players we’ve lost makes you lose a bit of optimism.

Not a softball insider, but I don't see the concern.
DJ is a loss, but the strength of this team (and apparently this staff) is offense. Will be fine.
Nolkamper was a below average player.
Denham a B- pitcher. This new staff has All American pedigree, so I think they know what great pitching looks like.

I don't see a reason to panic. Not even close.

I’m thinking by , or before midseason true freshman Dixon was going to be our ace. Not happy Denham is leaving but not a disaster. She wasn’t the answer in regionals.

Lol the transfers aren't done yet. And remember we signed 1 player to a NLOI. If a school you were planning to go to has a mass exodus of players, are you still likely to go there?

[cajun_lannister]

We will see some transfers coming in shortly
