Watch Caiti Fisher of Grandview Heights. Playing for the Westerville Ice 14U this summer.
Caiti was injured sliding in to second and missed 2 1/2 weeks of the HS season. A great pitcher with a great bat, as well as a terrific kid.

Morgan Ryan lead Triad to the Championship game in D IV.

Emily Massey was very good for Mechanicsburg this season.

Emily Kauffman (she is a sophmore but this is here first year of pitching) was West Liberty-Salem's top pitcher. She throw a no-hitter and a perfect game this year.

All three of these young ladies pitch in the OHC and will face each other again next year.

Must add Tess Sito of Elyria.....State D1 runner up to the list she help the Pioneers get to the Big Show along with Sophomore Megan Bashak.....My guess is you will see these young ladies again in Ashland.....

Rachel is an oustanding and talented young lady with a great future ahead of her in many ways -- athletics and academics.

We feel it is a success if she "only" gets a single!

we cheer silently every time jessica doesn't hit one over the fence on us. she can really crank that bat!!! i do believe our "Roots" at mercy hospital may have put the blood line in those girls to make them play this game so well.
what do you think purplejack?

I thought it would be cool to bump this thread. They are seniors now right? Have they met/exceeded expectations?

You really threw me off BuckeyeMCS. I was wondering why somebody thought Gabby G. was a freshman. Once I looked at the dates, it all made sense...lol.
