  1. Hello Family and Friends of Freedom Fogt, On behalf of St. Henry and the Fogt Family, we want to extend our sincerest thanks to all of you for coming out and sharing your evening with us at the Freedom Fogt Fundraiser. Because of the generous donations from so many people, the contributions, and the auction items sold, the fundraiser was a HUGE success—more than we ever thought possible! It truly was an amazing and humbling experience to see so many friends throughout the NKY community come together to help one of our own. The financial contributions will certainly lessen the burden of the medical expenses but the warmth of your friendship and support is a true blessing in healing. Thank you, again, for your time, generosity, thoughts and prayers. Very gratefully, The St. Henry Family #LadyCru #Softball#Nation#
  2. Hello Softball Friends, As many of you know, Coach Freedom Fogt from St. Henry has dealt with Type 1 (inherited) Diabetes health related issues over the last few years which recently culminated into a partial amputation of her left leg and total reconstruction of her right foot. Freedom and her husband, Chris, have been at the helm of St. Henry softball for the past 6 years and are huge part of the NKY high school and travel softball community. We, at St. Henry, want to extend a personal invitation to our softball friends and hope you will join with us for a fun night of food (pasta bar), silent auction, dancing and music by Doghouse on Saturday, February 4th from 7-Midnight at St. Henry High School (3755 Scheben Dr., Erlanger, KY). Cash bar/beer/wine/water/soft drinks. Cost is: $20/person ($25 day of event). To purchase tickets, send a donation or auction items, please call: 859-802-5289 or SHDHS at 859-525-0255. We sincerely appreciate all the well wishes and the support from such a great community of friends. Hope to see you Saturday, February 4th! St. Henry Softball Team (past and present)
  3. Thank you @Lawnboy13, Bob Jackson and Allen Ramsey!
  4. Villa's field is oddly shaped. Looks like about 226' at the closest and 260' at the max.
  5. Pretty Close. See attached. It's 240' to center. You can do this on Google maps pretty easy and see that Villa's field is even bigger.
  6. You are absolutely right @Playtowin29, that would have been out on most fields, it was a very good hit. But instead, it's just a double. Only 6 times this year did Gabby have a chance to make hits like that a homer, which would have made her over 1.100 SLG % even higher. SH last year had a great schedule, playing teams in FL that were ranked in the state of FL and played quality teams from OH and IN, yet Gabby still had a SLG% over .800 and had half the games at SH. I have no doubt her hitting would have held up pretty well against better competition this year, but we'll never know.
  7. #RCC9 , you run a great program and do things the right way. You have some great players on the team too. But the POY for Div II... for this year should be Gabby Stewart. Her offensive numbers are undeniable, and would be even better in a reasonable field. She also hit pretty well against your dominant pitcher, likely hitting one out if on a reasonable field, probably getting a double on SH's field (if you wouldn't have had your outfielders playing so far back :no:). She's only struck out twice this entire season. And she's been intentionally walked many times, since SH doesn't have the luxury mentioned in the Highlands article of surrounding her with other great hitters. And defensively, she's on every play, and working hard this year. She's got the best arm on any catcher in the area. She's also played all over the field in her career, playing 3rd, SS, 2nd and pitch just this Year. No doubt she's the best defensive catcher in the area. If you want to talk about deserving for a career, she's got that as well. Hitting over .500 for a career, winning the defensive player of the year on her team as an 8th grader on a team with 8 future college players, at 3rd base, her secondary position.
  8. Sorry, at the time I counted, two games weren't updated in GameChanger. It's actually 18 total, but only 6 not at SH or Villa. Yes it's been a bad weather season for SH. And looking at the schedule, there are only 7 more regular season games with only 3 more not at SH or Villa.
  9. 300 foot fence, that's funny. It was a great shot! The one Gabby Stewart hit out earlier this year, was a very similar shot to the same spot. The fence at that point is about 235ft and it is fairly uniform. Your statement however, that this was the longest Women's HR you've ever witnessed in person (and probably many at the game might agree with you), adds credence to the point I was trying to make last year, that it's quite hard to hit home runs in fields like Saint Henry or Villa. http://bluegrasspreps.com/ky-softball-high/nky-sluggers-304863.html There have been some pretty good power hitters at SH in the past few years (like Mamee Salzer, Noel Butts, Sami Ives, Teresa Urban, Jordan Kramer, and Gabby Stewart), who's power numbers have been hurt by the deep fences of the fields they play on. As even Lawnboy and others have commented on, Gabby Stewart has hit several this year that would have been out on any other field. I believe it's likely she would be leading the area in home runs and her slugging percentage would be even more impressive, if she played on reasonable fields. Out of 16 games played this year, only 6 haven't been on either Saint Henry or Villa.
  10. Amen RCC9! Taylor is a fine school and the coach and program seem to be great. They were one of Gabrielle Stewart's top options. And the chance to play with Haley again was very enticing. In the end Gabby made the decision that the program at ONU for what she wanted was stronger than Taylor's, even though it will cost her more in student loans.
  11. Yes, sorry to hear that. I always enjoy watching her play.
  12. Stewart had 4 solid offers and interest from all levels. She chose Ohio Northern University, because she loved the school and their great Chemistry-Premed program.
  13. It's nice to see some discussion on catchers. It seems like they've gone unnoticed in the last few years. My heart, eyes and head say Stewart tops the list, but like Cru Bat Boy, I may be a little biased. It is quite a good group of catchers though. McGinn is a nice player. I haven't seen Daley yet, but she's in a great program. I also haven't seen Mullins, but I'd like to.
