wow ... as impressive as it gets
Congrats!! I love the catcher's comments in that awesome video --> "she had an amazing drop ball, and I have the bruises to prove it" I suspect you may have a ton of bruises as well from helping her develop that :) amazing accomplishment!

Thanks. I certainly had my share of bruises . . .
. . . but learned early on to forget the 5-gallon bucket (it set me up too high). I had a much lower seat I use and that really helped. ** Edited by MidloHokie at 9/10/2024, 5:25:36 PM

JMU did a great job with the event. They also inducted the 2004 Natty . .
. . . FB team and coach Mickey Matthews. Matthews' speech was definitely worth the late stay to hear it. He was a hoot but pretty obvious he'd have a tough time coaching in today's environment :)

I met him at the Myrtle Beach Classic
Back in May. Super nice and yes, he was very funny. I believe he lives down there now on or near this course.

Congrats to your daughter.......
and to you as I am guessing your countless hours on the bucket and the pitching strategy discussions had a huge role in melding the competitor she developed into!
