Back when she stopped playing and focused on soccer she was doing great, now that she's a freshman in high school she's getting to play softball again for a couple of months before the soccer machine starts back up (her school doesn't have a soccer team).

That was also her first try at a slap bunt, they have already gotten much better.

So, in the books... is this a hit or an error?
In my opinion, this looks like an error. Pitcher had fielded the ball and had plenty of time to make a throw, but first base was nowhere to be found. She hadn't even really crashed for a drag bunt, she was apparently standing in no-man's land and couldn't move her feet back to the bag in time to deal with a speedy runner.

Perhaps it was 2nd's responsibilty to cover first on this particular play, and if so... even worse than first, where was 2nd, not even in the picture!

It's a hit. I don't believe you can give an error for mental mistakes.
