It takes more than two years to build a program. But I feel like our foundation has been laid. Now it's time for us get over the hill. |
It's been difficult to grasp. Mentally, it has been challenging as a coach. |
That hasn't always gone well. We've lost some girls in the past. But I want girls who are going to be dedicated, even if it's just for three months. |
That opened a few eyes. But you know what, those four kids are still with me. |
That tells me there's interest. Not having a youth program hurts. Most of our kids come in without having played the sport. But we're building a base. |
We don't have it yet. We allow the other teams to have hope that they can beat us. But skill-wise, we've grown enormously. |
We're competing. That's something we haven't done in the past. The whole morale of the team is different. |
We're not measuring our season on wins and losses. But a win sure does change the attitude. It just reaffirms to me that we're headed in the right direction. |
When my girls believe they're capable of winning in softball, we will be able to compete for a title. Teams aren't throwing their No. 3 pitcher against us anymore for a reason. |
