This!

[Chris Olsen @RebelsOlsen]

This may be a wildly controversial post...

Softball has always been a beautiful game because there has never been just one way to dominate.

You could beat people with speed.
You could beat people with defense.
You could beat people with pitching.
You could beat people with situational hitting.
You could beat people with toughness and IQ.

Yet somewhere along the way, we've started acting like the only thing that matters is how many balls leave the yard.

Home runs are exciting. They should be celebrated.

But when accolades, rankings, and recognition become disproportionately tied to one statistic, we risk losing sight of what actually wins softball games.

The kid hitting .500, maybe all singles, matters...

The shortstop making plays and turning hits into outs matters.

The slapper creating chaos every at-bat matters.

The pitcher producing outs, not strikeouts, matters.

The athlete moving runners, taking extra bases, and doing all the little things that never make it into social media graphics... they matter!

A game built on speed, athleticism, pressure, execution, and teamwork is slowly being reduced to a home run derby.

And maybe it's time to have an honest conversation about the ball itself.

When offense becomes so dominant that pitchers and defenses are increasingly marginalized, the balance of the game starts to disappear. Maybe it's time to nerf the ball a bit and bring the game back to what made it great in the first place, a game where pitching matters, defense matters, speed matters, and every run has to be earned.

The best players are not always the ones hitting the most bombs.

Often, they're the ones most indirectly impacting winning.

Let's be careful not to reward one skill so heavily that we forget to recognize what made this game in the first place... the complete softball player.

Honesty is the best policy on both sides

[Coach Justice @coach_justice33]

I want to wish every athlete in the portal the best of luck in finding the right place to call home. Ask every question and trust your gut.

To the coaches reaching out to players; be honest with them. They’ll find out the truth & just be in the portal again if you aren’t.

When you lower standards, the "underachievers" are relieved and complacent.

When you raise standards, the "champions" are excited and motivated.

[Kevin DeShazo @KevinDeShazo]

Leaders don’t complain

Leaders don’t gossip

Leaders lead. Leaders live a higher standard.

[Greg Berge @GregBerge]

Your best player celebrates a teammate's big game. Or they don't.

Hey @NCAA I know you’re trying to encourage the long ball, but if don’t give pitchers the rule you’re 1. Endangering pitchers with today’s equipment 2. Taking the skill out of the game

Either give pitchers back their zone or just put in a pitching machine and call it a homerun derby contest.

Maybe think about ABS or training for umpires.

[Softball Portal @SoftballPortal]

Hey @NCAA still hoping this gets better.

[SEIntensityNational @seintensity]

Yes she did!!
