thanks for tips
You're welcome kid!
You're welcome kid!
that is me!!!!! it charlie
Loved watching her pitch, doesn't hurt that she's gorgeous as well. Thank you Ms. May for ALL the wonderful games!!
Tour so mean
I wish i had more orientation about what to do, cause to me it was just like you have to be good or your getting cut, get in shape but all by yourself, and better communication with the coaches they were like im your coach and that’s it and finally talk a lot more about mental sport issues
It can definitely be cut throat out there, hopefully you have a good support group to lean on in tough times. We'll definitely be getting more into the mental side of things in the future, but if there's something in particular you'd like us to talk about, please let us know!
Hey, #19...words of wisdom. After four years watching you shine in the circle, we'll miss your poker face and fierce arm.
so hard to take a break but so necessary!
@@mackg7228 it's hard to convince some of my pitchers to take a real break, but once they do, they're always so happy they did
@@PitcherUniversity YES! its harder when they’re kids/teens cause they just want to play
Four years. Four rock solid years. And not once did you let your team down or disappoint sooner nation. You are forever sooner royalty.
great!👍🏼
We're so glad you liked it!
Always my favorite pitcher. Her "mound presence" was superb and commanding. I guess it's "circle presence" in softball! 🙂
I liked Nicole May I will miss her
