At an AAU event today I walked away from a game because the parents sitting near me were brutal to listen to. So that means their daughters lost the opportunity to be recruited. That’s unfortunate.
Playing the outfield is a privilege and should never be viewed as anything less, you are the last line of defense.
“No fly zone” is a motto that cannot be taken lightly, you gotta get after it 110% every single time, win or lose 💪🏾
Let your kids be coached. Let them get used to coaches holding them accountable. If you save your children from discomfort & hardship, you often keep them from realizing their own strength, abilities. Let them grow their character so they can become confident, independent adults!
If you see someone falling behind, walk beside them. If someone is being ignored, find a way to include them. Always remind people of their worth. Be who you needed when you were going through hard times. Just one small act of kindness could mean the world to someone.

Reminder that you don’t always have to be on the “best version of yourself” train.
Just be you.
Some days you’re your best, but no need to feel guilty when you’re not.
I love this time of year between Christmas and the New Year. It’s a time of reflection, hope, vision and possibility. A time to think about who you want to be and the life you want to create.
College softball is so much more than physical skill, and it’s the intangibles that will set you apart.
Be a great teammate, be coachable, communicate on the field, encourage others, own your role, and buy in to outworking yourself every single day.

Finished 3rd in heartbreaking fashion. Lost 7-9 in 8 innings. Great weekend of softball. Stay tuned we are back at it tomorrow in Peoria, IL for the PGF Midwest Championships.
Currently at the state tournament. Just watched a player (who has been emailing us for the past year) ground out and then walk into the dugout, rip her helmet off, and throw it.
That’s a real quick way to get crossed off my recruiting list.
