I know this may not be a big deal to some but I noticed it immediately. The eye contact.
One thing that was instilled in me at a young age was the importance of making eye contact when someone is speaking to you. It’s a simple habit, but it says a lot. It shows respect. It shows that you’re present and paying attention.
That’s why it’s something I emphasize at every clinic I run. When I’m teaching, I expect athletes to look me in the eye. Not because I’m trying to be super strict, but because learning how to communicate, listen, and show respect will take them much further than anything I can teach them about fielding a ground ball or swinging a bat.
While I don’t know Coach Murphy or Jocelyn Briski, the fact that this is something she naturally does tells me a lot about her character and the program that helps shape her.
Softball is about so much more than softball.
Samantha Louisa is going to OKC 😭❤️😭❤️
The pure passion and belief this woman has for her program and people is so special. Keep it going @HailStateSB 😤

And it’s Boomer forever… y’all are FAKE FANS… talking about young women in terrible ways. I couldn’t speak on it when I played but man… IF YOU WANT TO SUIT UP AND SHOW HOW ITS DONE, GO RIGHT AHEAD!!!
Personally hate field turf, but understand its necessity. Why do I dislike? Makes lazy baseball fielders. Bad habits don’t get exposed. It’s exponentially easier to field on plastic than natural. So as a baseball purest, I think it cheapens the product. But it certainly makes everything else easier also. Field prep … gone. Dragging, raking, draining water …. Gone. Most rain outs … gone. Way less time for BP post prep. So yes, it’s essential, especially in bad weather areas.
I will probably be tweeting this every gameday for the rest of the season.
But if JT GASSO is not the assistant coach of the year we riot!!!
How has this guy never won this award with the offensive numbers his hitters put up year after year for the last TEN YEARS!
@JoshCar69840713 Hey Josh! There are celebrations that are to hype up our own team, and then ones that are disrespectful to other teams- which was NEVER done by us. Ever. You can hate the bat slam all you want. But it was never towards the other team.
“I need you to lock in stop being distracted right. I BELIEVE in you but YOU’VE got to want this moment. This isn’t my story alright?”
IM READY TO RUN THROUGH A BRICK WALL
#Sooners coach Patty Gasso gives a shoutout to the nearly 3,000 fans that came out for a fall exhibition game.
Stay for the “6-7” joke from Gasso at the end. I am also confused what this means.
