Total meltdown...yes. errors once again killed us...it wasnt poor pitching. It coukd have and should have been an 11-0 shutout win in the fifth. Hopefully the girls learn and continue to build off this season.

Varsity pitcher was injured playingwith her travel ball team. Pulled up freshman jv pitcher. We couldnt be more proud of her performance....only her second varsity start.

oUCH is one word for it.....:cry:

I might have to break out the umbrella and stay all day! Lots of GREAT softball games!!

Very true, very true BGH...gotta give our rivals a hard time:) just messin with ya. I was just thrilled to see my oldest out there pitching in a championship game, hopefully the first of many to come in her career:D

I'm interested to hear how many of brossarts four runs BGH scored as earned runs tonight...just for curiosities sake:D

Not sure I would call a dirt ball a wild pitch, but anyhow it was an exciting game and congrats to both teams!

Don't make me feel any older than I do, having an almost 16 year old that's my firstborn....ugh...where does the time go? I still remember her in second grade teaching herself how to pitch from an old pitching DVD...she just had her first varsity start last friday:( Her high school career will be over before I know it. I have learned so much about softball this year, having never played it...and I love all the talk about stats...I have NO clue what her stats are this year:idunno:

Oh, gotcha! I didn't know that:) Parent of a freshman:) LOL

37th has Calvary Christian as well. Someone correct me if I'm wrong...but BGH states that Brossart will be district champs after beating the winner of Calvary/silver grove game. Won't they also have to play the winner of the Campbell Co/Scott game to be district champs? Guess he has it all planned out???:idunno:

I won't bother with a prediction part...you never know....but I'll be at the Campbell/Boone game! Last regular season game and a great day for it!

Just for my own records...I don't remember cc playing NCC more than the one double header at Bartlett a few weeks ago... can you help me fill in the blank?

Nda played a good game...i wish we could have figured out the timing on her changeup....she got them every time with it..on a lighter note: jv score was cc 11 nda 1 after three innings:)

Curious as to why gallatin couldnt bring their jv team to campbell county tonight...

They hit and we didnt. Scored all six runs in the first three innings. Jv pitcher came in and allowed no runs and had an rbi to hold them but it wasnt enough. Hopefully we'll be firing on all cylinders tonight against gallatin.

Da#m rain...was looking forward to some softball today....guess they won't reschedule for sunday? Probably not.

Amen! At least our team will be the real JV team! I think they will be very competitive if they don't fall apart in the final innings....seems to be a reoccurring problem. I told our pitcher to work on that:) LOL

So lets hear your favs and why....there are some good JV teams out there:)

Very very true...been there done that:) in a perfect world, she would have a dedicated pitching coach working with her each day during practice:) I wish I could be of more help to her, but I never played a day in my life nor can I catch her! Haha I have watched enough lessons to be able to critique her, although I don't think shed go for that;) off to do some research on teaching the drop ball:)

I agree and disagree with that statement. First off, my kid doesn't need to be a star, just an effective part of her team and the best she can be. Secondly, you can go out and throw a million pitches a day, but if you're doing them wrong, all you're doing is creating bad habits. I'm a big believer in drills to better your pitching ands having someone to critique and correct you, not just going out and wearing your arm out with a bunch if the same pitch...you don't learn anything with that...no different pitches, different grips, etc. Practice does make perfect, but not if you're practicing wrong;)

Thank you! I did not want this to turn into a chip bash....like I said we absolutely love chip and had no complaints at all..other than he is usually extremely busy!

VArsity is Marissa Glahn, JV is Lily Rebholz and freshmen are Mallory McGrath and Ashley Schrieber. JV was a heartbreaker...thought we had a nice lead till the third inning fell apart...oh well, we're gettin' there, a little at a time:thumb:

Lou landers is a name that came up tonight...any info?

Yes, sometimes I think I paid Chip to entertain me instead of teach her! LOL Seriously though, we love the Chipster:)
