Congrats to Jayme!

In regards to a replacement, I wonder if we could benefit from another female coach/former pitcher who pitches in the 50's/60's. Coach Lewis and Coach Mata clearly do an amazing job of preparing our hitters to hit elite pitching / velo. But to get to where we all want our program to be, we've got to be able to consistently crush the 'normal' mid to high 50's pitchers as well. Those type of 'non-elite' pitchers simply shouldn't be able to shut us down ... especially late in the season. Very excited to see how our team takes shape for the fall. This past season, we were definitely strong enough to still be playing ... just didn't work out (I'll confess, I haven't quite gotten over that yet ... would have loved to see our seniors play for at least one more weekend. As I know we all would have :(

Brewing_Hokie 06/04/24 05:37 PM ET
I wouldn’t mind that at all, but hopefully Pete gets us one even earlier!**

VermontHokie 06/04/24 02:18 PM ET
Seems like she would be on a VERY SHORT list
Hokie4Life_89 06/05/24 12:13 PM ET
Doubt if it's replaced
VTChip 06/04/24 11:28 AM ET
Was that a GA spot?**
hokiepro 06/04/24 02:34 PM ET
Actually it was a Student Assistant Coach - not a Grad Assistant**
VTChip 06/04/24 09:03 PM ET
Was she paid a stipend or salary?
RJHokie 06/04/24 09:10 PM ET
Pretty sure it was a paid position
VTChip 06/04/24 09:32 PM ET
NCAA limit of 4 paid coaching positions
Hokie4Life_89 06/05/24 11:59 AM ET
Ok. It definitely was a good move on his part. **
RJHokie 06/04/24 09:34 PM ET
Yes.**
RJHokie 06/04/24 06:39 PM ET
So that’s replaceable with someone who wants to start grad school **
hokiepro 06/04/24 07:15 PM ET
Yes, if they choose to do. **
