Not to be a wiseacre, but how many national ASA champions have come from VA?

She doesnt play 10U she is playing 14U. So maybe she is ahead of the game.
No kidding.

In LL when she throws a change-up and I have seen this on numerous occasions, the ump will hesitate in calling the pitch. 9 times out of 10 they call it a ball. Its like they are confused. Maybe it is the fact they are not used to seeing a pitcher who throws something other than right down the middle. I have no idea.
JMO, but your pitcher has no business in LL. LL is a rec program, unless you just like beating up on rec teams. I thought you said softball was taken seriously in VA?

From what I have seen written here and what college games I have watched. Its seems there is a vast difference in plate coverage from LL to the big show.
As well as nearly everything else, including umpire training and player skill.
