I think some really good DRIVE suggestions are presented here by Java.
Please see the comparison to Sarah below. Your DD's are very close to Sarah's. With that said, take a look at the hips and compare the two. Sarah has serious hip snap/core torque/hip stop resistance (yes, I am on a hip snap/core torque/hip stop mission this spring). She stops her hips at roughly 45 and your daughter is a little more closed.Perhaps there is more opportunity to hip stop a bit earlier which could transfer more energy in her pitch. Uneo is almost closed as well and she doesn't do so bad but I think her foot is a little more toward the catcher versus a 45. I will go back and review some vid on her.
Keep spending some time on her drive but don't forget the core is an important component. Yes, I love Java's 2 step but it only starts the party and doesn't transfer as much energy to IR/brush without Hip Snap/Core Torque/Hip Stop.

Pretty sure you're seeing the pant leg flop up in this shot.
Hopefully it's just that...CP
