    How many pitches?

    If your daughter claims to have more pitches than the catcher has fingers on one hand (usually five) you'd better re-think things.

    Arizona/Tenn

    I watched the Arizona/Tenn game and the Arizona pitcher's location was great with nothing over 62 or 63. She changed the eyes of the batters and changed speed well.
    Our travel team always had more trouble with off speed (out on the front foot, dipping, etc.) than the burners, especially those who didn't have a great change.

    Great pitchers

    Every great pitchers has an "out" pitch, that pitch they throw to get a big out, could be A blazer, a floating bird, a sharp cutter, or a rise, but the best ones can get that strike out or ground ball at the right time! I like the ones with at least a quick and moving rise ball! haha:bonk:

    John has a kid headed for the IVY league with a weighted GPA to heavy to carry! She is truly a sharp kid and a heck of a ball player. Sounds like Shue and her need to get together.:hurray:

    True

    UT never adjusted to Mowatt's change. The flip change is very a difficult pitch to throw well. Most HS kids throw it way too slow. Mowatt has not been super this year. Interestingly, watch Angela Tincher no-hit the Olympic team tomorrow evening(ESPN2). I don't think she threw one change up in the game.
