    requred running times for college girls

    Nice job! She may just get into the 7's before 1st day of practice. If nothing else, this showed her how to accomplish something that seems unattainable.

    Colorado Sparkler--Lodging question

    It says on the site that you will not be allowed to play bracket play if you are not registered. I would contact the TD

    Don't eat chili for lunch. Makes for a long drive

    requred running times for college girls

    You know I've really been just giving you a hard time... Tell her to keep working hard, and she will get there. I am always amazed at how much our girls can accomplish if we expect it of them, and they expect it of themselves.

    requred running times for college girls

    I find very little if anything on the Livestrong website to be of any value. Just so we can be clear, you are quoting a study of the average times for women in the fattest, laziest country in the world, correct? See if you can find some information for average times for women across the world...

    Let me know when you are next in the Midwest, and we can have a team fundraiser. You all can pay to watch me do what every human being should be able to do. Unfortunately Americans tend to be in poor shape and lazy.

    I'm in my 40's and don't work out. I could briskly walk that pace backwards. They aren't asking for a sub 5:00 mile. If they start now and walk a mile or two a day and pick the pace up a little each day/week then it should be no problem.

    The recruiting reach of the Power Five conferences

    Yes, but Missouri produced Paige Parker. Boom(mic drop)!

    When did you pitching DD start pitching exclusively?

    There is nothing wrong with her being a pitcher that only pitches. If she isn't better(or at least close to as good) than the girls starting in the field, then she shouldn't be out there. After all, she wouldn't want the #4 1st baseman playing 1st when she pitches... This tends to happen to...

    Worst player on the team. How do you deal?

    I'd rather my DD neither be the best nor the worst on a given team. It is not always about "playing up". Sometimes playing up just crushes a girl's confidence. I am personally very leery on playing up. I'd rather wait a season too long than move a season too quickly. Bob, thank you for...

    Is this obstruction on SS?

    Comp, As I watched the video I thought the SS was making a play on the ball. It just didn't get to her. I've got a feeling that I'm wrong though. I have two other scenarios for you. 1) What if the SS was running to cover the bag for the force? Who has rights then? 2) What if the SS had...

    Show bunt then swing

    I feel bad for the girl, but if the description is correct then she misplayed the batter. You don't just charge in as soon as a batter squares around. You wait until the pitch is far enough along that the hitter is committed. Having said that, wear a mask

    Wanting to play but can't

    If I remember correctly, if it was up to your husband she would be pitching with hello elbow

    "If it happens again, you'll be out of the game"

    I've watched the clip several times now. I think the 2nd girl was heading her way to the other on deck circle. Maybe she is a lefty. I know that most associations now allow you to use either on deck circle. The more I watch this, the more I think that everyone was just caught up in the...

    "If it happens again, you'll be out of the game"

    I saw it completely opposite. To me it looked like she was watching the play and didn't realize where the umpire was. The ump looked like he pushed her which I thought was uncalled for.
