Great start to summer ball! Went 6-0-1 & beat a team w/ some freshman college players in champ game. Up & down start, but ended up using all my tools, hitting over .300 still, & getting a ton of balls at SS. 🎥: https://t.co/eQSTZWIlMO @ohana_duck@alexandriasimmm@BACCoachWest
Hate the ending, but so proud of what we did this season. No negative ending can ever take that. Going to miss my seniors so much. Wish I did more the last game, but happy with how I worked & grew this season. 🎥: https://t.co/v1NU1aclzM #Blessed#PisgahNation@AthleticsPisgah
Slappers putting pressure on the defense in the SEC Championship.
I will always stand by slappers being a huge threat in the game of softball. Defense has ZERO room for error. Even if the defense fields it perfectly, you still may not throw her out. Texas SS could not have played that ball any better. Bama 2nd baseman maybe could have come in but even then I don’t think she’d be able to get a favorable hop on that play. But that’s the beauty of slapping! If you can put it on the ground, it’s up to the defense to make the split second decision on how to field it + make a quick perfect throw all in about 2.8 seconds.
Game day nerves? Pressure? The “what ifs”?
Take it to God first.
Before the first pitch… before the big moment… pray.
Lay it all down—your fears, your goals, your expectations.
Because the peace God gives isn’t based on the scoreboard.
It steadies your heart, clears your mind, and reminds you—you’re not out there alone.
Play with confidence. Play with peace.

Play for something bigger than yourself.
Stats fade.
Recognition comes and goes.
But purpose? That lasts.
When you step on that field, it’s not just about you.
It’s about your team.
Your growth.
The way you show up and impact others.
And even more than that—it’s about honoring the gifts God gave you.
Play with heart.
Play with joy.
Play with purpose.
Because the legacy you leave won’t be measured in numbers…
…it’ll be measured in how you made others better.
