Last night I watched a replay of Georgia vs. Minnesota from 03/06.
Great game, and awesome pitcher's duel between Wilkinson (GA) and Groenewegen (MN).
What really impressed me was Wilkinson's array of speeds she threw her pitches.
She ranged from 51-52 all the way up to 67-68, and literally, everything in between.
What I typically see from most premier pitchers (like Groenewegen) are a good top-end, and off-speed,
that differ by 10mph or so, but can't recall many that live anywhere in between those extremes like Wilkinson does.
So, I ask, who are some other names to look for in D1, that really mix speed like Wilkinson?
I really enjoyed watching her pitch, both for speed and location,
and would certainly like to follow a few others who are similar.
Thanks.
