Tennessee Softball 2024

TN softball has changed so much since getting the new hitting coach. The short game is fading out and they are focusing so much more on hitting the long ball. I think because of this we see a lot of changes in the lineup based on who is producing. I remember us having so many slappers and lefties. It’s really interesting to see an almost entire line up of right handed batters. However, I think this is the best I have ever seen the ENTIRE line up be able to produce at any time. Everyone can be and has been a threat.

But we only got 3 hits today.
 
How many did they get? One if our hits counted as 3 runs, that matters.

We will lose games if you think one home run is going to be enough. Thank you for engaging.
Every game is different. If three hits was the norm, you would have a point. But that’s not what has happened all year long. Tennessee did just enough to win a three-game series against the #3 team in the country and the primary competition standing between the team and repeating as SEC champions. Held Georgia, one of the highest scoring teams in the country, to 5 runs in 3 days.

I’m not expecting a championship parade to be held for this weekend‘s result, but I do find it odd and a little disappointing that the first reaction I see from some people is that a win isn’t good enough. That every effort has to be perfect or else the future outcome will be failure.

Sports is about winning the day, the future has to take care of itself. You learn from every game, win or lose, but to diminish the success of the present out of fear for the future means you take no joy from it. That makes a season less of a journey and more of a death march with no finish line.

Also, 3 hits is fine. Putting the ball in play is what matters. Give the defense a chance to make errors. Scoring runs is what matters.
No matter how it happens. Yes we all love hits. But don’t discredit this young and talented ladies.
