This thread finally got me to register after a couple of weeks of lurking.
I want to see if I understand this correctly.
1. The High School Coach has settled on one pitcher.
2. The High School Coach wants said one pitcher to pitch only the pitches he wants her to throw.
Sounds a lot like the Chewbacca Defense (bad South Park reference) but do I have that correct? I was upset last Spring when the coach of our 10U "A" team had coached her into having only pitcher that could pitch at the level desired come State and Nationals. In that situation this one pitcher burned out in both tournaments by the time the games got "really" important. That mentality at the High School level seems ridiculous to me.
