I'd be lying if I said I didn't have a solid buzz right now I'd still say LSU has a really bright future

Holy shite this would be a big get. Even bigger since many people thought she was going to Auburn or UGA.

I hope not, 3 strike outs per inning is pretty fair...

Coupled with the recruit of Alison WallJasper(the spelling could be wrong), this could be a very interesting year. She too is a tall girl from California that is also suppose to be the real deal.

4 losses and a 0.15 ERA? Sounds like some of her defenders needed an arse-whipping. And considering she struck out way more than 2 batters an inning, the fielders didn't get that many chances, anyways....so they must have really sucked behind her.

I think she went to the same high school as Pete Maravich?

Nice catch.

DW Daniel HS is one of the 3 schools at which Pete played basketball...looks like he was there from 1961-63

I think the catcher from STM is also committed. I could be wrong, but I think she's LSU. She would be a nice cleanup hitter to compliment rest of the lineup. She is a power hitter. She and Chance Vallot made quite a catching tandem at STM. Think she will be a senior next year.

Nevermind...Just saw she was committed elsewhere. Thought i remember some ballpark chatter about her maybe ending up at LSU. For now, she's Bama.

Not a huge loss. LSU is stacked at catcher right now.

My daughter batted off of her twice that season. She threw her 6 pitches total. I'll let you figure the outcome.

Striking out 21 batters in a game 3 times? 3 earned runs in 138 innings?

Jesus Christ. She had more losses than earned runs given up over the entire season. Let that sink in for a moment.
