A short swing like that is why a petite girl can generate power.

During the football game yesterday Valmy had posted something or the other. So, I hit him up and asked if he was ready for baseball. IIRC,the reply was "Always".

Those 3 are legit national title contenders. Turning well into my 3 favorite sports at UT due to consistency and likability

Turning well into my 3 favorite sports at UT due to consistency and likability Texas women's sports in general are strong more often than not any more, and drama is rare. That counts for a lot with me. Those sports are also less (at least visibly) transactional, which is another big plus. Rivals will try to dismiss our women's success as some kind of consolation prize when the football program is going sideways, but that's just part of being a flagship in this part of the world. As Longhorn fans, our cup still runneth over.
October 11Oct 11 Author SELA is coming to Austin at the end of February. 2/25 midweek game The team that knocked LSU out of the regionals last year
October 14Oct 14 Final games of Fall season begin tonight. McLennan lost to aggy 2-1 last Thursday. Could not find details. Oct. 14 – McLennan Community College (10 inn.) – 6 p.m. CT Oct. 17 – Texas A&M (7 inn.) – 6 p.m. CT Oct. 24 – Our Lady of the Lake (7 inn.) – 6 p.m. CT

October 15Oct 15 Author Not only was it a planned 10-inning game, but someone on TOS said after 9 Horns batted in the first inning, they just went ahead and moved onto the 2nd inning before 3 outs were made. It probably could have been worse than 12-1, but it sounds like we didn't need a 10-inning fall ball game to last 3.5 hours.
October 17Oct 17 Author I still cannot believe this shit tonight isn't being streamed anywhere It's Texas and aggy. Even in fall ball, come on!

October 17Oct 17 The LHN would have aired this, and many folks said good riddance to the LHN. Not me.
October 17Oct 17 Popular Post Did not expect to run in to the softball team running the ring toss at our neighborhood fall fest yesterday evening… wouldn’t have known we were scrimmaging A&M tonight if I hadn’t, so they can count on a family of 4 attending that wouldn’t have otherwise if not for that community outreach

October 17Oct 17 It was 98% those with YouTubeTV. If you actually had the channel, it was fucking great.

October 18Oct 18 Aggy scored 2 against McLennan and 0 against us. Are they going to be shit on offense this season? 🤔That would be a shame

October 20Oct 20 Author the aggy schedule site just removes each fall ball game after they play them, so they never have to acknowledge they got shut out by Texas in fall ball!

Good mechanics. snead_swing.mp4 1.76 MB · 0 downloads For those of you with young daughters at home who wish to play softball at a high level...Take notes on this swing. 1. Weight back, hands back 2.Small stride and load 3.Short to the ball and long through the ball This is how you generate bat speed and power from a small frame. If she doesn't get coached into a longer swing from those looking for launch angles, she will be a great hitter in her Horns career.
October 23Oct 23 Excellent points above by FloridaHorn. Also, I am most impressed by the way she keeps her head down, full concentration. Need to send a copy of the clip to the baseball team.
October 24Oct 24 Author Last fall ball game tonight - will it get rained out? (It's just Our Lady of the Lake, so it is not a big deal) As far as I am concerned, Texas beating the brakes off TXST and shutting out aggy was what I needed to see. A program that plays us tough every season and an SEC opponent.
October 25Oct 25 Who is #1 I am seeing in all these pics hitting. She pitches as well. Not seeing it on the roster
