So a girl is as athletic as a boy before the parties go through puberty. This is not news, nor is it news when a girl can compete with boys in athletic events because of this reality. If a girl did this in college or the minor leagues, then by all means, give her the award.
Well give me that long list of girls who have dominated Little League Baseball/Pitching like Davis?

Her being the first is notable for sure, but it's overhyped given the general equality of pre-pubescent gender athletic abilities. The lack of forerunners in this is more a relection of lack of previous opportunity given discrimination (to some extent) and lack of acceptance of gender athletic parity before puberty.

I'm sure Davis is better than most girls, but this shouldn't be viewed as some landmark outcome. This could happen every year if opportunities were equal and a team with a girl pitcher had enough other talent to make its way to Williamsport.
