Here are my unsolicited thoughts
1. These ladies are excellent representatives of our school and deserve all of our support. I know we already agree on this, but it's worth repeating for emphasis.
2. As others have mentioned, we came into the season with big questions around pitching. As a result, many were leaning toward this being a "down" or "rebuilding" year, but 38-9 is damn good and the ladies should be proud.
3. Maybe going on the road for the post season wouldn't be so bad? Perhaps there are fewer distractions on the road which allows the team to be more focused and approach their roles with greater intensity.
4. Maybe the current skid is good and will serve as a wake up call as the team proceeds to the post season.
With this post, I'm probably guilty of being a "Pollyanna" by not pointing out obvious flaws. That's fair. However, I feel like those have been highlighted enough and the team is quite aware of what they need to work on. I say all of this as a very pessimistic person in general, so here's to hoping that by going against my inherent impulses the team and universe at large will reward us with future success!

Other than a rabid home crowd, being on the road is similar to the season

Hopefully the 7th inning offense last night is a sign of things to come.**
