Everyone texting me and chirping about Texas beating Tech in softball…
Congrats.
You think I’m down? Nah. I’m dadgum proud of @TexasTechSB and know we’re just getting started. See you again next year.
WRECK EM FOREVER.
@Pumpjack4L@mxg021 Everyone seems to forget that 2 years ago Coach Glasco took over a program with only 4 or 5 players on the roster after Snider left for Tennessee.
there are plenty of them. How many times do the viewers need to hear about the transfers?
Jackie Lis all time leader in home runs in three seasons at souther illinois. Joins her travel ball teammate NiJa Canady that she has watched do all this from afar for her final year with a chance to do it together.
Hailey Toney is a sophomore and was voted a captain on the team. A rarity especially on a veteran team like this. Its because of who she is.
Vic Valdez played the end of last year with a hand so torn up she had to have it restructured in offseason. Has a new role this year and the best teammate ever always regardless.
Logan Halleman the torpedo of speed only had 8 starts before the postseason, started the regional and set the school record for stolen bases in a single game.
Mihyia Davis is the active career hits leader in all of NCAA. Under recruited out of HS and has stuck with Glasco throughout her career. Would be a pro if she didnt turn the AUSL draft down.
Mia Williams, yes shes a former gator youve told that 500 times, how about how she is hitting the ball to all parts of the field this year? She credits that to some mechanical changes but also in her words "Gerry tells me 'im good' at least once a day, i think everyone needs to hear that sometimes."
NiJaree Canady, has grown this sport more than any player this decade by being open about things that only brough her hate. She travels to do media after games sometimes out of state, just to carry the mantle she has. Lets talk about that instead of how much she makes. How about the fact she is carrying a burden so others (who are making plenty as well) dont have to and so others make more than her in future.
Should I go on?
I'm sorry to be a little pedantic, but Memorial Day does not honor "all who served." That's Veterans Day.
Today is the day Americans remember and honor our war dead - those who bought our freedom w sacrifice.
Please don't wish anyone a "happy" Memorial Day. It's reverential.
