The girls are signed! ✍️
I came from South Carolina to each of their signings all over Georgia! I may seem crazy but I just try to be the coach I needed at this age. All love & support and here for these moments!
GO TIGERS, HERD, JACKETS, SCARLET KNIGHTS, WILDCATS & HOTTY TODDY!
I was going to stop but it’s getting worse. Gate people just stopped every player and dug through their bat bags and pulled all their drinks out and threw them in the trash. Including sports drinks.
We are still in a heat advisory.

Can we talk about the dedication it takes to have a pre-pitch routine like this!!! Not one, not two, BUT THREE deep breaths. 😤😮💨 Totally in the zone.
Also… I’m thankful we don’t have the pitch clock. How amazing are these intense moments that we still get to savor?!
Why do we have kids playing at 8am in 37 degree weather for a showcase?
Why aren’t travel ball coaches standing up to this and saying no?
The only one with enough guts to do it that I’ve seen is
@ecb18uSchnute
The ground ball I’m speaking of actually bounced over the opposing team’s right fielder. I’m complaining on behalf of all the girls who worked so hard to be here. Not just mine. They all deserved better than this.

Field gates are locked at 7:08 for an 8am game. Had our girls stretch then run through cars in the parking lot to get loose. Made it onto our field at 7:19 to warm up. Game started on time at 8am.

Our field yesterday. Pitchers on a higher elevation than home plate. Tough field to compete on for a couple of rise balls pitchers.
This is our nationals.
@thealliancefp
@triplecrownspts
@TCSFastpitch
We had a ground ball that bounced completely OVER the right fielders head after hitting this lip.
Outfielders need face masks out here for nationals.
This was our championship series.

Walked up to the complex with a cup of water. Was told I cannot enter unless I throw it in the trash.

P’s and C’s did great today.
1 walk and 22 K’s in 14 innings.
2 W’s and 2 Saves.
Devon and Emily holding it down behind the plate with blocks and frames all day.
But the best part of all is how loud they cheer for each other from the dugout. 🤍
So sad to be losing one of our pitchers. Katelyn has been a great leader and teammate. This girl came to play the morning of her prom. Then spent her last days at home with us. You don’t get them like that often. I’m so proud to have coached her. Good luck at Army,
@flandersk7

Trying to figure out why the umpire gave her sunglasses to the opposing team’s catcher. While mine just had to endure the sun without being given any umpire’s sunglasses.
And why are we playing on this field for a national championship?
@thealliancefp
This kid drove 6 hours round trip for a pitching lesson today. Love how much she asked if she was getting better.
🧡💙
Can’t wait for nationals!!!

Maddie Veal spinning curves with the foam ball.
Another one adopted from the things I did years ago with my own pitching coach
@cindybristow
Love it bc it will tell you very drastically if you are doing it right or wrong. 😆
@maddiev58
So fun to watch my pitchers on live stream all week and get to witness in person today! 4 of them stepped on the mound in their championship games and I was filled with pride.Congrats to the state champ
@maddiev58
! 7 consecutive shutouts and 0 runs in the post season. Incredible.
When you say “one more” and you actually get it 💫
Curve ball 🛸 6️⃣3️⃣
School all day, practice, homework, 1+ hr drive to lesson and then back. No complaints just gets in and gets after it!!! Grateful to coach pitchers this dedicated.
@Kylee2026
These girls played awesome this week! So cool to see so many of my pitchers here in Colorado. Super proud of them!
(Even if Laci doesn’t pitch anymore 😝)
@Kylee2026
@LaciLou2026
Wishing the BEST of luck to these pitchers who I’ve been blessed to pitch with this year. They’ve each worked tirelessly to be where they are and I can’t wait to see what they do in Columbus. 🔥🔥🔥

Perry giving a clinic on how to throw a drop ball. Would you believe me if I said this was her first time throwing it full??? 👀😳🔥
@PerryDrake22
@Marucci09SE
Maddie came to lessons throwing awesome the day after her tournament where she threw 17.1 innings!!! Didn’t hear one complaint, she just loves it. Still pushing for that 64 but it’s coming. 🔥🔥🔥
@maddiev58
Some rise balls and change ups from last night.
I love this sequence from Zee last night. Started by nicking the outside corner and then inching over a lil more each pitch until the K. LOVE IT!!!
#command
And the way Anslee is working behind that plate for her. Great battery 💚🔋
@DezariaJohnson
@ASaunchegraw
This kid is different.
Perry’s middle school team played 4 games on Saturday.
She pitched ALL 28 innings
IN ONE DAY
68 strikeouts to 1 walk
She also hit .785 with 1 HR and 3 triples against some elite pitchers.
New definition of a work horse.

Maddie with the complete-game 2-hit shut out to open the high school season with a DUB. Love watching this girl pitch she’s so competitive and intense on the mound. Had a lil adversity today and you’d never know it.
@maddiev58
The battery! Minus Katelyn who left for training at Army and Reagan who picked up for Mayfield for nationals.
First time coaching my own battery and these girls won me over. They pitched and caught their hearts out. Love them too much for 4 of them to be going to college 😢
I remember young
@maddiev58
and how many times she broke the facility’s thermostat on the wall bc she threw so hard but so wild. After about the 4th time they just moved it.
Many years later she’s on to very big things. You can’t teach a fire like she has. Such a competitor. 💚
2024 Chelsi Ervin working on owning the inside corner without leaving the ball on the plate too much. Her backdoor curve (pitch 2) is so dirty. 😵
@ChelsiErvin
I finally got to see Ryley (2023) throw in a game!!! 10 K’s, 2 hit shutout! She was working all parts of the zone but killing them with the high heat.🔥🔥
She also hit a double off the top of the fence! 💪

SO proud of
@WrigleyMegan28
&
@WrigleyKatie28
for the toughness it took to win their middle school tournament. Not your average pitchers who will step up & suit up when their catcher gets hurt. They platooned pitching/catching all day. It’s all heart all the time from these two.
I’m so proud of this kid.
@TNStateSoftball
is getting a special one. Played the entire summer with a broken wrist. Changed her delivery so she wouldn’t hurt it. And just got after it. She’s a fighter and plays with heart. Love watching her pitch.
2025 Michelle came to work yesterday! Big goal for her this off-season is get stronger so let’s do it!!!
@MichellecChicas
Jump rope to get the heart rate up and pitch through fatigue. Then bungee resistance off the mound for stronger push off. One day at a time. 💪💪💪
Nothing better than watching a pitcher that plays with heart. Team down 3 runs and she fights with all she has to keep them in it. First of all it was a great pitch -jam shot- but look how hard she goes after it with no hesitation. So proud to coach this one.
@Kylee2026
ZEE!!!
@DezariaJohnson
This senior is headed to the elite 8 in Columbus. 🔥🔥🔥
All it took was 3 innings- 6 K’s 1 hit 0 runs!!!
Honestly she would scare me if I didn’t know what a sweetheart she is.
Just has that bulldog presence on the mound. 😤 😤😤
Kylee was slinging PEPPER this morning. 🌶️🔥 Love watching her pitch. A no decision but she finished with 7 innings 8 strikeouts and 0 earned runs and a MOONSHOT 🌝 to score her team’s only run. When she gets in the zone there’s no stopping her.
@Kylee2026
Maddie Veal is State Player of the Year for all classifications!
So proud of her and all she’s overcome this past year.
Congrats
@maddiev58
this recognition is so very well deserved.
The best part about Kendall’s performance today is that when I told her she had to pitch all of our games she just had a big smile! She LOVES IT! So fun to watch!
@krfrost05
Can’t believe this lil spark plug hit 62!
Juggling school, JV as an 8th grader, driving to lessons, and even further to Birmingham for travel ball practices. School ball in the fall is so hard on our GA pitchers but she has come out strong as ever.
🔥6️⃣2️⃣🔥
@DakotaMcdanielz
Not a game went by without Sage thanking her coaches. Good or bad she was there with a smile. She also personally pulled me to the side to thank me for the extra work I did scouting. Spending extra hours in the 100+ degree heat and I’d do it all again! Love this girl so much.
This homer was so big. And this video!!!
@erinparker2005
’s bat slam,
@borders_tavye
launching some kind of invisible cannon. Denver is going to be fun with this group!!! ☄️🔫
MEGAN WRIGLEY YALL!!! Throwing absolute CHED!!! 🧀🧀🧀
60mph for this 7th grader. This kid has worked so hard and has come so far. Her growth as a pitcher has been unbelievable. What’s even better is the type of leader she has become.

was a strikeout machine yesterday- 14K’s in 8 IP against 16 and 18u hitters!
13 years old and mowing them down. Lost control with curve later in the day so she learned the value of a well placed fastball to get some ground balls! So much progress in a day!!
Tonight I got to watch another 2 get after it against each other.
Kylee Lawrence vs. Kerrah Foster
Kk vs Kk
@Kylee2026
came out with the win but a great pitchers duel the whole way through. Super proud of both of them. Fun to watch.

@KyliePack_2028
again after a couple months. Balance beam work and a curve ball👌
Moving states has been tough bc I’m so used to seeing these girls every week but she hasn’t missed a beat. That’s a testament to her work ethic. 🔥❤️
Everyone please help me congratulate our very own Chelsi Ervin Region 8-AAAAA Pitcher of the year. We're super proud of you and know that you'll do great things at Tennessee State . Love you!!!!!❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️
