I have a feeling that the rotation during a weekend series will be Nevins, Richardson, Nevins/Richarson (who ever is feeling better at the time. Greiner, Nunn. Nunn is multipurpose because she also played outfield when she was not pitching. She has a great arm and can throw runners out from the OF. So for her to finish all American as a multi purpose is huge because that means you were on top of your game with out having one solid position. As for academics our entire team is full of brainiacs. The whole team typically have a high gpa 3.5+

 

 

Funny you say that because there was a TV clip of her saying she ended up pitching because everything else she tried she sucked at- her words not mine.  It was actually pretty funny.

Ha interesting, I need to catch that clip. It's true that pitching is her dominant position and honestly that is where she should stay. But if she is needed in the outfield she can fill in. Expect her to come out of the bullpen a lot to start out if she doesn't play the outfield. As for the bullsvision, last year they had a few games posted online but not many, which is a disappointment. This year hopefully they add more considering how far this team went last year. As for anyone in the Tampa area I recommend getting season tickets. You can get a family 4pack for $100 which is a steal. Only a few more days until first pitch!

Yep that was similar to our schedule last year. We had a ton of "home" games because a few tournaments were in Clearwater. We hold a huge advantage since we can bring our fans out if they are willing to make the drive. Always a fun time. You also need to remember that in February up both its not too favorable for softball so the south gets a bunch of tournaments early in the season. So teams near these tournament locations have these faux home games.

The advantages of the campus being in Tampa in the winter time.

Ken will run three to four pitchers throughout the rotation all season long. I believe he does this for two fold reasoning: He keep their arms alive/fresh over a 60-game season and he gives his younger pitchers game time experience to build confidence against better competition. It pays off when you have an unfortunate injury (remember Cristi Ecks). He's had some stud pitchers over the last 13 years since I started following USF softball and he rarely just rolls the dice with his ace. Just my take... and I know next to nothing about women's softball from a strategy standpoint.

Has anybody seen Nevins in practice since the Series?

 

Has she been working on that skipstep?

 

You KNOW the umps are going to be looking for it. And if by chance they miss it, the opposing coaches are going to be pointing it out

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
