Here in the central time zone we just made the switch and never looked back. Shouldn't be any different in the pacific time zone either.

Have her pitch with a 14" ball for a day or so, then hand her a 12" ball. It will feel small and she'll think she's throwing 80 (so will her dad).

I thought I had some smaller balls in one of the buckets I grabbed to go practice with my youngest. They were all twelve inch balls and she's an 8yr old. She threw a few into the dirt but was hitting the strike zone after a few pitches with the larger ball. I don't think it's that big of an adjustment.
