Outstanding Softball Book - Finished It by Cassie Reilly-Boccia

[reagansdaddy]

I just wanted to take a minute to recommend to you all the book "Finished It" by Cassie Reilly-Boccia. Cassie was the first baseman for the 2012 national champion Alabama softball team. You may remember her absolutely blowing up a base runner coming down the line in fair territory in the final inning of the last game of that series.

This book mixes a look back at the day of the final game and the game itself with anecdotes covering Reilly-Boccia's entire career at Alabama. It is a great read and will really make you a fan of the approach of the Crimson Tide.

The unique thing about this book is that I really believe it will appeal to a very wide audience. I think parents (like me) will enjoy it. I believe that girls from lower middle school through high school and even college would enjoy the book and learn a great deal from it (about life more than softball). I also think softball coaches would really like the book and benefit from reading some of the things that Coach Murphy teaches and the impact that a coaching staff has on young women. It's a powerful message.

The book is an absolute bargain at under 4 bucks for your Kindle on Amazon! Get a copy for you and one for your DD and read it together!
