Oh? Why, yes, the first softball team ever to make the Division I jump straight from Division III did just beat a top 25 team.
Final out? We got it right here. ⤵️

Happy Fundamentals Friday!
Did she hit a HR or sac bunt? You don't know. That's the key. Praise from your peers is a key to confidence. Too many high fives are given only for HRs & not enough for stealing third, scoop @ 1st, dives, sacs & great ABs
