This is a photo from a college scrimmage DD had on Saturday. Can you tell from this pic if it is bat wrap? This is as far back as the bat gets before turning to the ball (which btw...was a single).

Unless she wraps during her stride forward, at plant is when you need to be concerned she should look about like this, looks like the picture is taken during her normal stance before ball is pitched, I would want to see a still at plant before confirming anything or changing anything...

Not here.
Not saying it's 'bat wrap' but, maybe because the bat is 'flat' that fits coaches definition of 'bat wrap'. Possible, possible if the pic went a few more frames it is in a 'good' position to get to 'wrapping the bat'.

I promised DD I wouldn't post video, so...this is the absolute farthest the tip travels towards the pitcher. She gets it to this point and pretty much holds it until go. The ball is in the air at this point but she isn't getting good stretch from her lower half... Yeager's missing frames:)
Again, this bat setup was how her TB coach instructs. I always had more of a vertical bat.

I'd think about reverting back to the more vertical barrel that she was accustomed to.
