I’m a big fan of Coach Alameda, she is true class & a great softball mind! Noles are always an easy team to pull for, they’re a well coached bunch of young ladies. Geaux Noles
Random, but I keep thinking back to all those games that we could have (should have) won in the supers or regional rounds. Wasn't pitching the main issue in all of them? (Auburn with J Wall, Oklahoma, Michigan, AZ State, and the regionals at LSU). Would a deepened bullpen have won us those games?
I like player who hit over 0.350 to 0.400, whichever flavor. The only issue I've ever had with slappers was what Steve called touch & go types, and only when you had a runners in scoring position, especially at third. A lot of those slaps didn't leave the infield which left runs off the board.
Using the bunt in baseball as an analogy; I hate the bunt, but a guy like Mickey Mantle was devastating as a drag bunter. Great speed, great power, and only infielders with a death wish played him shallow to protect against the bunt.
Slap with girls who have both speed and power, and don't telegraph the slap.
LSPoo was pretty good at slapping Summer's drop ball!
