    Walton said in that interview that she's always been a streaky hitter and has to learn to make the little adjustments. I think that also means mentally personally. She'll be fine I think jsut may take a while. I love what Brown does but Rothrock is defintley the ace. Also hoped it would translate to us and it seems to have.

    I think Keegan's injury coupled with Brown's fantastic senior year kind of shifted the focus a little. But Keegan is starting to look like the generational type pitcher many saw thru her junior year.

    Agree on Mia. This is painful, but she will be better for it down the road

    No hitter was saved by the Williams error at SS, subbing for Wallace. If this were an away game, it might have been scored a hit. OTOH, I have no doubt Wallace would have made a spectacular play and gotten the out had she been playing.

    Given the level of competition, CTW had lots of players getting experience in different positions. He probably asked Smiley to take an at bat.

    UIC a team whose first win last year was in April, has won 3 games in a row at this tournament. They aren't on a level like Alabama, tennesee, or even USF with Georgina in the circle. They seem like a scrappy team.

    Miller gets the nod for the start in game 1
    3up and 3 down in the top of the first
    bottom of the first
    falby pops up
    Skylar flies out
    Otis lines out.
    first 1,2,3 of the tournament for the gators offense
    top 2nd another 1,2,3 inning for Olivia and the gators
    bottom 2nd. Erickson gets a single and gets all the way to third but 3 straight ground outs ends the threat.
    curious to see the adjustments the line up makes next go around.

    Has Walton mentioned anything about Wooten lately? I was curious why she hasn’t pitched much(or at all) against these weaker teams.

    I notice the majority florida batters are swinging early in the count.

    Miller has had a few full counts (or nearly), but she has not walked any of them to her credit.
