Very nice Dana. Also, constant flying out will cause back injuries on the young, undeveloped teen.
It is likely another thread but why is swimming so bad and something that needs corrected. It is obviously something that is totally natural...nobody is taught to do it...only to undo it. Many high level pitchers seem to do it to various degrees. From experience what issues are indisputibly improved when the swim is eliminated.And the great Jennie Finch flying out? what's this world coming to?
Dana, thanks for the info, please realize I was being sarcastic there, was just getting a little upset that a select few chose to rip apart a 15 year old phenom that throws 68, my main idea to begin with was how she could generate so much speed, but it took off into a "lets rip this young lady along with the shamrocks" I do appreciate you post though, thank you.
Thought I would post a video of a young lady who is a Sophmore in H.S. still 15 I believe. She has recently signed a letter of intent to play at Missouri. Some of you may know who she is as she was the number one recruit for the class of 2013. Missouri, Arizona, UCLA and others were interested. Anyway she has been clocked as recently as the ASA Nationals at 68 mph, although in this video she was coming off of an elbow injury so I am sure she may be off that a bit. So I though what better way to see why she generates so much speed( and yes I know speed isn't everything, but she has a rise, screw, drop, curve and change, to go along with that speed). The 1st thing my daughter and I noticed was the quickness she has off the rubber and her arm whip. Enjoy.
I vaguely recall Hillhouse(?) saying something to the effect that he doesn't care what his students do with their glove hand. I think there is a good reason for that.

I had no idea this was still being discussed. Funny stuff. All of the college coaches that wanted Tori to commit with them, including several in the top 10, must all be clueless. Maybe they should have checked with some of the "experts" on this thread first.... Good times
