Sarah Fekete, the lead-off hitter for Tennessee steps in front of the plate every time she slaps. Although TV angles can be deceptive, at times it is very clear her foot is in contact with the ground, outside the box and in front of the plate when she hits the ball. I can't understand how the PU can not see this. It's not like she is stepping out of the front of the box and the lines have been eliminated by other hitters or plays at the plate. She is stepping in front of the plate! The PU has a good clear view of this. It must be one of those rules that the NCAA wants ignored.
