What do you say to a girl who has rehabbed from two over use injuries in 3 years, faithfully followed a tough rehab regimen both times, is one of just a handful of girls in the program who plays TB, has taken lessons in pitching and hitting for 4 years, gave up a TB team to play on a winterball team for her school, does not crack the varsity because there are two upperclassmen pitchers ahead of her, then misses 4 of the first five games of the school season due to colon infection. She comes back to play in succeeding 4 games and is hitting .750, pitched the last 2 games, has allowed no earned runs, and in fact the only game this week she pitched a no-hitter, allowing one batter over the limit. She has always been called coachable, a hard worker and always supports the other members of her team.
Now, with all this as background, what do you tell her when a school coach tells her she has to come to a practice, forcing her to miss her high school's state band competition, because "she needs to show her committment to the team?" She hasn't missed any other practices, aside from the time she missed when she was out sick and missed school as well. I am flabbergasted.
