When there have been year end reviews of Tech sports (see TSL and others)
This year have not been the greatest when it comes to football, MBB, or some others, but there are sports that elevate the overall program every year.
Softball
Wrestling
Women's basketball
Track and field
Soccer during its semi-final run
And others
Even if the year ends in a frustrating result and things dont go the team's way, that does not mean it should not be appreciated. Some of the players were in a major role for the first time, including Abromavage, Mizelle, Foster, Carrico, and Layton. Some were in their first year of taking on the mantle of true staff ace or lead hitter. 48-12 is nothing to scoff at. Every year, this team/program gives so much positive to cheer for. Any given moment can cause hurtburn, but there are so many more moments that give fans so much to cheer about.

To likely make the NCAAs when everyone and I mean everyone had written them off!! Who knows they may flame out and be “ once and done” but they dug themselves out of a deep hole with hard work and character…

I think that is the one thing keeping us from taking the next step.

isn't going to win a game realistically. Outside of the comeback in the 7th inning vs Akron, our bats were pretty quiet in the NCAAT and only scratched 1 vs FSU.

worried if the pitching can turn back around or not is not a good recipe. Our players have proven that they can hit well.

Bree did something that took some heat off her pitches. It made her change up easy to tee up. Mazz just needs to fine tune some pitches that get strikes in the strike zone. Discipline batters wait her out, undisciplined batters K. Layton will be very good.
Out batters need to work on some swings when the pitcher is hitting her spots. Not every swing has to be a home run.

symptoms the next few days/weeks. Y'all just look over me. Can't wait for off-season news and fall ball. Counting on Chip to keep us informed. Go Hokies!
