My kid is 2014.....going after a couple of semi-local D2 schools. Asst coach watched her first travel game of the year.
she went 1-1 with an RBI...didnt get much action in the field. DD kept emailing them and calling with no response.
Last weekend she gets an email....head coach wants to see her play as she didnt see much defensive action in the
game she played.
So HC shows up for the game....first time up DD has bases loaded. She rips a double to the gap and clears the bases.
As she rounds 2nd looking to take the extra base on the throw home....cut off does her job and promptly picks her off.
She finished the game 3-3 with 2 doubles. Had one defensive throw home from the outfield that slipped out of her hand...you could tell it was a semi weak throw. After the game....coach is leaving, DD goes over to talk to him and
she tells DD that He will be back for 2nd game..which he did.
First AB daughter has another solid single. Then promptly gets picked off 1b??? 1b coach instructed her to take
a big lead (she is an aggressive base runner and leading in SB on the team)....later in the game she makes a diving
attempt on a fly ball...didnt quite get to it. She also made two pretty good throws to home. Coach left about 2/3 the way through the game without talking to DD.
DD...called him monday and hasnt got a response thus far? I guess the ? is....did she do well? She went 4-5 while she watched....just made a couple of stupid base running blunders. I am a nervous wreck over the entire deal. LOL this is the college she really wants to attend.
The other ? is...she attended college #2's camp recently. Head coach liked her very much...and said they were having another camp in a couple of weeks to look at some additional girls. Thus far after a month we have heard NOTHING from him. She has called and left numerous emails....I am thinking she doesnt have a shot with them. But yet we thought a week ago we didnt have a shot with her #1 choice because we hadnt heard anything from them in over a month.
Its very frustrating....i wish it would be done with!
