Melissa's Dad... if you watched the Alabama game @ the WCWS... you saw me on ESPN... they handed me Melissa's homerun ball and stuck a camera in my face.. wasn't prepared for the camera... was prepared for the homer!!

Mel was 2 for 3 (double off the top of the wall & 1 rbi)in a pinch hit & finish the extra inning game against Traina in Tuscaloosa and 1 for 2 (hr & 2 rbi, K)against Traina @ WCWS... they didn't reenter her to hit but did reenter her to run and she scored the 3rd run in the 5-3 loss WCWS game.

I bought a handful of balls @ WCWS and asked Melissa and the team to sign... which they did.... we are enroute home from OKC... will be back in Fresno Tuesday afternoon! Mel will be back in Fresno late Wednesday afternoon.

Mel will be one of the best hitters next season - some posters are crowing about lack of hitting but it will be there, I think -- just hope the Renfroes dont throw alot of innings in summer ball --- again a great season GLV BTW watched the replay on ESPN 3 and saw the HR ball given to you :clapping:

I'm pleased with the over all season. They did good and went far. They have got to get better pitching. They got to get one that can take over the game. Watching bama and Okla, now they got some good pictures. Not saying ours are shabby,just saying we need better if were going to the top.

Mel was one of the best hitters on the team this year but pretty hard to get into a rythym of play getting 2 at bats a game (up to 50-100 at bats less than the other starters but statistically had almost as many homers, rbi's) and then get pulled for defensive purposes... yet she was also the only starter without an error this year... and she gunned the Oregon runner at second trying to stretch a single into a double in the first inning @ WCWS... also gunned a runner at the plate earlier against Kentucky... LOL at her "defensive weakness" she was a "First Team All State" playing in California.

Team Stats...

Overall & scroll down for conference play

University of Tennessee Athletics Softball

Melissa was selected Second Team All SEC... by the Other SEC Coaches with her limited at bats... LOL.... we (my family & friends) just imagine how she would have done given the same opportunities to play.
