. . . 'had their eye on her'. They signed her didn't they? All that said, the majority of scholarship pitchers are only moderately successful, at best.

Bree's not there yet but she's closer than the vast majority of her peers.

Mazz and Bree are very good compliments to each other -- hokiepro Mar 22, 2026 at 10:17 AM ET

I think you’re selling Layton very short. She’s had some ups and downs -- hokiepro Mar 22, 2026 at 10:12 AM ET
