    Well, that is a shocker. Rock Gold is not considered an elite level team and they won it all. All of their kids are going to places like JU, Samford, USC-Upstate, etc.

    Well Gabi also got the put out at second but the Bandits couldn’t overrule the call safe, and she had the nice throw to home for a force out-in addition to driving in a run and scoring one. I don’t know if she’ll play SS but she’ll be a welcome addition to the program for sure. Jmo

    I don’t ever post on here but I wanted to say that the Lady Dukes Lamar/Burgess team IS in fact Layla and Keagans team and they did play at PGF this week. That team will sometimes go by Lamar/Burgess and sometimes just Lamar. They streamed all of their games this week at PGF on Game Changer, so I know for sure that was the team I was watching. And if you look on the Tourney Machine app in 18U Premier Bracket B, you will see Lady Dukes Lamar where they played all week and they were out of the tournament Friday morning

    This was posted this morning.

    "Rumors from PGF this year. Vawter is still deciding and FL is still in the hunt. Brown is hurt and so hurt they’re talking possible redshirt. Rothrock had major surgery over the winter and although she is pitching again she doesn’t look nearly as good as she used to. It doesn’t show in her stats because the books show lots of errors but if you were there she was getting rocked."

    If this is true... which honestly I think it is cause just from watching the all star game rothrock didn't look sharp... we need both maxwell and vawter.

    Drama King or Queen? To post this without explanation is ridiculous.

    I thought it was funny! I think the *Dramatically falls on the ground* is the explanation.

    I could give you a "Disagree Bacon" for calling a post "ridiculous" but I'd not stoop that low! :)

    Going into the season with less than 4-5 pitchers is just asking for trouble. Now to find out Rothrock is questionable just adds to the potential disaster if they do not sign Vawter and Maxwell or someone similar and the best I can tell there is not a similar left in the portal.

    Brown was dominant thru her high school season, wonder what happened to her and when?

    Brown is the one more in question it sounds like. Rotchrock I figure could use a good rest since she just right back into pitching after surgery.

    I haven't seen anything about Ava Brown being hurt. Not saying she's not, but I would like to see a link to evidence the fact.

    Fire away. A post like that without context deserves to be called ridiculous. I fail to see the humor.

    I posted it soon after alysby21 posted "Rumors from PGF this year..." I guess it's my fault for assuming everyone would get the correlation. I thought it was funny and that's all that matters IMO. but I deleted my original comment anyway. So it doesn't matter anymore.

    Me too but multiple people said she wasn't pitching and she didn't play in the all star game last night.

    My hopes would be they rest until they hit GVILLE.
