Emma was a workhorse that carried the load a long time

for this program. Also have to remember Emma had to change her pitching form to comply with NCAA rules between her freshman and sophomore seasons and then change it back before her junior year because they finally got rid of that dumb rule. I still believe that robbed her of an even better career. Bree is great and if she continues on this path she may go down as one of the best.

Too early in BC career to compare to EL. One is building stats, one done.

Yes, far too early. One can argue that Lemley's best season was her . .

Not sure Scott could spell "offense", much less coach it.

She did play big time travel ball her senior year with the Shamrocks. . . .
MidloHokie 04/12/26 07:09 PM ET
