If you are truly interested in attending a university, especially one that invites you to a prospect camp because theyโve shown genuine interest, missing a fall tournament to attend that camp should be encouraged by the parents and travel coach. #FYI

- Unfortunately Iโm missing out on so much recruiting this weekend. Spending time with family in WV as we lay my 96 year old grandma to rest definitely takes precedence. #FamilyFirst #SeeYallAtTheFieldsSoon
- CATCHERS!!!! Be quiet with your movements, especially framing. You can cause a pitcher from getting borderline strikes because youโre being stiff and having jerky movements. RECEIVE donโt reach!
- Iโm 2 weekends into recruiting heavily (letโs be honest, we never STOP recruiting)โฆbut these last two weeks have been fantastic getting to see/hang with so many of my coaching friends, making new ones, and being around quality softball minds from all levels.
- Dear 2026 athletesโฆ.I cannot respond to your DMs or emails when you are wanting information on what I am recruiting! I promise Iโm not ignoring you!
- I want to know who does some of these rankings I keep seeingโฆ

- 19 of our 24 players on our current roster attended our Prospect Camp , as well as 100% of the committed 2024s who got an offer as a result from attending camp. CAMPS MATTER if you are interested in a university. And yes, we have those conversations if it is not a good fit ๐
- Since 2000 there have been 20 different national champions in D2 softball.
