So my youngest DD is in 7th grade. Last night at practice all the coaches were telling me how great a player she is, one of the best hitters and how coachable she is. I have already been told that despite being in 7th grade, she will be the #1 pitcher for the 8th grade team. Our school breaks it up in 7th grade and 8th grade teams, except for special cases. I am thrilled her hard work has paid off like that and am so proud of the compliments. They also said they are excited to see her in a few years for the HS team.
