Can any of you NCAA guys tell us if there is a standard (i.e. dragging bat through strike zone, not pulling bat back, etc.) which has been implemented as an indication for a "swing"?

Actually, she said the batter wants to keep one foot in the batter's box.

True. The other is on it's way to first but not yet on the ground when hitting the ball.

Didn't hear it that way, but I'll take your word for it. But I didn't hear a clarification on where the other foot may or may not be..
