How many K's did #1. MA, #2. CO & #3. AT have their Jr. year HS, as they hold the college all time??? How much Gold did they hold, in HS ? >>> Excuse the Fan Talk... I'm sure in a game of percentages, you have a valid, though pessimistic point.
Let me tell you about the game we are really in.... If you watched the Fox & Friends spot, She is likened to the biggest voice in advocating for us being in the Olympics. She is being denied the opportunity, and nothing is working for getting us their this year. So we all need to do something about that. It needs to be made a national issue. The insider's can't do nothing about it. Here is how we make it a national issue.
Let her start off striking out the commentators, then start a couple tv shows. Not jeporoity, or some triva games that we read on here. How about..."American Pitcher" or "Pitching w/the Stars". Have them ready to air on all televised Softball games during the Olympics ... Why don't Facebook work? Because everyone doesn't know who this has hurt the most. There is a time for team USA. But this is a time to see the individual. We need a Champion, that can raise the awareness... Every country that votes against USA playing should get no more aid..... ect. You get it.... We need Trump, Sharpton, O'Reily, Mrs.Obama ect....and all of us thinking about what we are going to do about this. Talk about setting on the bench, Team USA got benched. Just when we needed to bring home the gold, so we can ask why a team in the final 4, has a softball program not even in the top 125 ?????

If you pay attention to what is going on with Olympic Softball, you'd know that there is a big push to get it reinstated for 2020, and that the work has to be done now. It is not a national issue, but rather an international issue, so putting spots on Faux News is only going to contribute more to the international opinion that it is a joke and not really a sport.
The champions you speak of are the coaches and players going overseas to start up softball programs in other countries and offer instruction to get the international community inspired about the sport.
For what it is worth, James Easton, of the United States, is the reason softball is not in the Olympics, and he strikes me as the sort of fellow who would watch Faux News.

If you really knew the issue... You would know that the guilty parties still need to be banned, and not the girls.

All I see are a bunch of Olympic hopefuls swinging the free bats Easton gives to their schools and I cry inside, remembering that money is apparently more important.

Yea, I'm crying right along with you... My DD might not get a chance at it either. Really happy about how the WCWS is growing !
State Records : Softball Sorry record is 37K's in 14. If you read my above post I was at the game that went 20 innings and had 76 K's between the two pitchers. Our young cacher hit a walk off HR in the 20'th. Gabriel is good, But this year Keystone Lagrange is National ranked and has the firepower to beat her. Last year it was errors that came back to haunt them. We lost to Edison who just got beat by Keystone 1-0. Edison pitcher is going to CSU. TN is getting a good one.
Thankz... just still wondering if that record was in a winning effort? They stated in the video, that she has a place in the record book with this effort. In lieu of the record books, Her records is, the first Girl from Ohio to be on WJNT, the youngest to be on that team, and the only girl ever recruited by UCLA from OHIO. If you seen the Fox Clip, would love to decide what they were reporting ???
I cannot view some video at work, but she is recruited to play at TN.
Hey Hey...our High School team was able to win against this fabulous pitcher 3-2 yesterday. We had to do it with small ball and a few breaks but a nice win! By DD has the critical RBI. Bases loaded...high infield fly to edge of grass...Short Stop drops ball and runner advances to home. Just like she and I planned it!
