I waited back in 2015.
It sucked and was uncomfortable and I wanted to play softball but knew my rights and hoped it would push the needle forward a bit.
I remember getting heat from older players and that part hurt the most. Need some more support in this area within our game
I’m confused by those that claim to want more pay equity & equality for women in sports but then get mad at a player whom is trying to do just that. Especially when the “big” contract in sports often sets a new/greater standard for everyone else to be paid.
The definition of a Bearkat!
Congrats to Bella Perez on earning the CUSA Spirit of Service Award for her impact in the community, the classroom, and on the field.

I’m not saying I disagree, BUT, I think it’s crazy that:
Megan Grant, who broke a single-season homerun record that’s stood the test of time - while being walked 25% of her at bats - didn’t receive a POY award by any of the Big 3 POY pubs.
40 homeruns (so far) & NCAA-leading 74 walks - so, without a doubt one of the most FEARED hitters in the game …
Imagine Lauren Chamberlain or Stacey Nuveman not being POY’s… (I can’t).
How cool is it how much our game (& the talent in it), has grown.
