I've posted before but it's worth a repost

The year that AT led us to the college world series, she was 38-10 that season. In 7 of those losses, VT failed to score a single run and in 2 more, the Hokies scored just one. Here's her 10 losses that year: 2/10 #21 Missouri, 2-0 3/1 #8 Arizona 4-3 (12 innings) 3/7 #2 UCLA 1-0 3/8 Notre Dame 2-1 4/19 FSU 2-0 4/27 UNC 2-0 REGIONALS 5/18 #14 Tenn 7-1 SUPER REGIONALS 5/29 #6 Michigan 1-0 WORLD SERIES #4 Texas A&M 1-0 #1 Florida 2-0 (9 innings) - the game was tied 0-0 with VT batting in the bottom of the 7th when Erin Ota lead off the inning and reached 3rd on an error by the Florida center fielder. Florida walked the bases full with no outs, but VT failed to score And here are her 7 losses during the 2007 season 2/25 #13 Michigan 1-0 3/10 Ohio State 4-0 3/14 South Carolina 2-1 4/4 Longwood 3-2 4/22 Maryland 5-4 REGIONALS 5/19 #21 Ohio State 2-1 5/19 Cal State-Fullerton 1-0 As you said, just imagine if she had the VT bats of today

VTChip • 01/17/23 06:10 PM ET
Both Emma Ritter and Kelsy Brown were named to the Top 30 OF List
VTChip • 01/20/23 02:13 PM ET
Bre Peck is ranked as the #12 Third Baseman
VTChip • 01/18/23 08:37 PM ET
They could move Bennett to 3B and use Thunk at SS
Hockeydad • 01/24/23 06:24 PM ET
Cameron ***an ranked as the #5 Second Baseman**
VTChip • 01/19/23 03:18 PM ET
Our pitching depth should be much better this season.**
RJHokie • 01/19/23 09:33 AM ET
Good news. Let's go Hokies !!!**
william floyd • 01/18/23 09:22 PM ET
High probability Emma is higher up that pitcher list by the end of the year
Hokie Proud • 01/18/23 12:33 PM ET
Yes if she progresses and gets better, absolutely higher by end of year
VTsportscaster • 01/18/23 06:53 PM ET
I’ve never understood the love for Kelly Maxwell for OK St
VTsportscaster • 01/17/23 09:56 PM ET
She was basically THE reason they won the B12
hokiepro • 01/19/23 10:40 AM ET
It takes more than a pitcher. Angela Tincher could not win a World Series.**
HokieJack • 01/17/23 10:01 PM ET
Yes it takes a team, but…
VTsportscaster • 01/17/23 10:23 PM ET
Does ANYONE beat OU? Well…she did**
hokiepro • 01/19/23 10:41 AM ET
Actually Maxwell only went 3 IP, Morgan Day got the W vs OU**
VTsportscaster • 01/19/23 08:35 PM ET
And Keely had multiple chances to take her team to the WS and did not. **
VT4Natty • 01/18/23 01:30 AM ET
Why the shot at Keely?
VTChip • 01/18/23 09:09 AM ET
Why the shot at Maxwell? Just stating facts on WCWS success vs failure**
VT4Natty • 01/18/23 06:29 PM ET
I think most...
2hhoop3 • 01/19/23 10:54 AM ET
Good point. I actually got a text from a parent today
VTChip • 01/19/23 12:58 PM ET
This is an independent site so people can be open with their comments ....
nkhooch • 01/20/23 06:56 PM ET
I totally agree people should think before they post.
VT4Natty • 01/19/23 03:14 PM ET
If you agreed.......

So Let's Compare the "Consistent Success"
VTChip • 01/19/23 04:01 PM ET
Would just like to add here that the team that Coach D'Amour inherited
HokieAllMyLife • 01/23/23 01:03 PM ET
I love it when you talk facts.**
saret • 01/19/23 04:59 PM ET
Chip is.....
2hhoop3 • 01/19/23 05:25 PM ET
Fair comparison except for ability to make it the WCWS
VT4Natty • 01/19/23 04:35 PM ET
Sad postt, Chip. Sorry to hear that.🤢😢**
saret • 01/19/23 01:09 PM ET
As I mentioned above, I coached my answer to more of a shot at Ok St
VTsportscaster • 01/18/23 06:49 PM ET
Who’s #1??**
hokiepro • 01/19/23 10:42 AM ET
Well if the comparison is to OU then everyone falls short.
VT4Natty • 01/18/23 07:00 PM ET
I think it is about how 1 pitcher can't carry a national champ
UpperQuad • 01/18/23 09:14 AM ET
Yes, why? **
william floyd • 01/18/23 09:12 AM ET
AT is as close.......
2hhoop3 • 01/17/23 10:17 PM ET
And she beat the "professional" Olympic team 1-0.
Atlee Hokie • 01/19/23 09:38 PM ET
I've posted before but it's worth a repost ◄
VTChip • 01/17/23 11:02 PM ET
AT was in a class by herself at her time in the game. Still underestimated **
VT4Natty • 01/18/23 01:31 AM ET
Having watched the.....
2hhoop3 • 01/17/23 11:24 PM ET
True. That is where I would sit, and the movement on the ball was amazing.**
