The DW and I are proud to announce that our DD has verballed to play college softball at Duke University. It has been a crazy couple of months since the Purdue coaches left, but we believe that it is all part of God's plan for Katherine.
Congrats. I hear that is a pretty decent school! I think being a part of starting a program is truly an honor. She will be paving the way for Blue Devils in the future.
Head Coach is Marissa Young, played at Michigan and was an assistant coach at North Carolina last year.
Assistant Coach Kate Kantor played at Georgia Tech and was a graduate assistant at North Carolina last year.
Assistant Coach Amanda Chidester played at Michigan.
I'm thrilled your DD is coming to Duke. I go to UNC and NC State games frequently and can't wait until Duke starts up so I'll have great options every weekend. No better place to be a softball fan if you like seeing lots of teams than Raleigh. Not putting down her previous choice, but I'm betting she'll like the Raleigh area better, if just for the weather. And the basketball. She'll get to be a Cameron Crazy. As a Georgia native, I'm always pulling for the Georgia girls. Hope yours gets in the rotation soon.
Thanks for sharing JAD!
We have all learned so much from the posts you have shared about your DDs fastpitch experiences.
We appreciate it.... and Good luck to her!
