    DD has fractured 4th metacarpal head glove hand, redshirt

    DD got good news today. She can resume practice activities, running and fielding. She can resume hitting when she can close fist without any soreness. I still think she is going to redshirt as she has missed a quarter of the season and hasn’t practiced in 5 weeks.

    Meeting the coach for the first time - QUESTION

    DD always wore casual clothing, like she would have worn to class. DD always had her list of questions, and knowledge of team, so cia he’s knew she had done her research and was serious.

    Gift ideas for seniors

    For high school senior night, we give a plush throw blanket with monogram. We print a black and white photo (either posed or action) and have the younger players sign the photo mat. My DD’s senior year, we had a parent buy Yeti tumblers and had them powder coated and monogrammed for the girls.

    Politics Seeping Into Baseball College Recruiting

    DD has already been drug tested. At least 2 people from the team are tested every month, so most of her team has been tested while she has been at school this year, a few more than once.

    So less than a week before opening day, DD was diving for a ball in outfield at practice and fractured 4th metacarpal. Orthopedist says he’s never seen a break there on a softball player and it was just a freak accident. DD is likely taking a redshirt year, unless she has miraculous healing by...

    How are our college freshmen doing?

    DD seems to be thriving in workouts and practices. She is doing well academically, with one lower grade. She and her roommate get along well. She adores most of her teammates. She is tired, but loving college. She was the third fastest in the mile time trial, behind 2 upperclassmen. She’s near...

    Letterman Jackets

    DD got hers as a freshman. She wears it when weather allows. They are more popular with the boys than the girls at her school. She has more patches than when photo was taken. Soon it will just be expensive memorabilia. I wish we had taken the photo from other side so her softball patches were...
