Was she taught to get into a defensive position after release?

Not to get in position but be ready after, she started to do it more and more last year. Between the two videos I talked to her about holding for a moment and that is why in the second one she has a pause before letting her foot down.

You read my mind. I rarely comment on videos posted here but, that was the first question I had too... it looks like she's being FORCED into the fielding position instead of "falling" into it after the pitch. Sometimes, this can lead to hips closing too soon, throwing inside pitches (RHP to RHB). While your video looks like the hand is before the hip, it's something I'd keep an eye on.

That is 100% what I was thinking! She looks so quick to field a batted ball that her resistance is moot as she "gets set"
