A while ago I was looking at softball shirts and came around one that I thought was funny for my dad. Number 8 doesn't apply to me because I dont have any siblings....

monica abbott

Monica Abbott was the pitcher for the USA Team and for Tennessee. She has a very unique way of pitching...and i really like her diversity! She bends over and then starts her motion. If you don't under stand here is a video. She is very fun to watch pitch because you wonder what she will throw next! In the video she is pitching to Jennie Finch!!!

lisa fernandez

Lisa Fernandez is another famous pitcher! She played on the USA Team with Jennie Finch. Most people say she is the best softball player in the world...but to me she is the 2nd!! She is 5'6" which is short for a pitcher. She throws 68-69 mph, so even though she is short, she has a lot of power! Also, she has her own line of softball gear.

Fireworkkkkkk

In a blog from March I talked about college softball recrutments. One thing i forgot to mention is that there is a camp in Colorado where coaches come to watch the games and see the girls playing. There are A LOT of good teams that go. I really hope the Chargers will be able to go sometime! I've been telling our softball coach that I want to go soooo bad!

The sooner's are one of my favorite softball teams ever! They are having a softball camp in June and hopefully I will be in town to go! I'll have to convince my dad that I NEED TO GO! :)there will probably a lot of amazing softball players and more than likely I will be very intimidated!!

Going Green

OU's softball team had a game on       Earth Day.      If a student brought 10 or more recycalable items then they get a cute green shirt that says "boren to recycle", for President David L. Boren.
Here is the article and a sample picture of the t-shirt.

Why...

Why did they take softball out of the Olympics? They said that not enough countries play USA Softball. The only other major country is Asia. I think it would be fun to just have two teams competing for the win. It would make it more exciting and it would be cool if they played like 5 games and whoever wins, wins. It's not North America and Asia's fault that were the only countries that have the talent to play softball! They replaced softball with bowling...NO ONE WANTS TO WATCH BOWLING! Softball has more action and is fun to watch.
