I know this is an old post but We just ordered about 8 sets of gear -Mizuno (men and women’s), all star 7, Wilson, Rawlings, Easton prowess (what she was already wearing, got it for $100 on baseballsavings.com & will use it for practice gear) and the Jen schro gear (small and medium). I wanted...

Wondering if the softball world might be changing a bit? Seeing Oregon implode has me rethinking. We have a high-school coach that pushes “college coaches will love this”. For my kid, college softball isn’t the goal. Playing her best right now is and should be. I know you’ve been through it all...
