Let's Go...
Hokies!
If we could get consistency from our pitchers, we could go a ways in the tourney, but that's no given. We sure have the bats to do it, but again, when we face elite pitching, our batting can struggle as well. We do have a really good team, though, and tourneys are about getting hot, so hopefully, we can come out on fire.
I'm not so sure we will get that consistency this year (I hope I am wrong). However, I am eager to see how these young pitchers develop over the next couple years.
I agree, that's my take as well. Still, it's nice to be good, and the program seems to be trending that way. I've enjoyed watching what I could watch and look forward to the tourney and next year.
Game time at 2pm.
Still rainin' though?
Looks like they plan to start on time...
Top 4 3-0 good guys.
Let's GO!
Hokies!
ESPN just cursed Emma Lemley by putting up a perfect game alert π Come on, you can't do that
Saw the same thing. My eyes rolled out of my head.
They did that with Keeley last year!
Good guys win 6-1
Good grief, Georgia. 12-0 after 1 inning. Hopefully they get tired of scoring before tomorrow.
Apparently they got tired of scoring after 1 inning
Tomorrow 1pm against Georgia. All going to come down to Hokies pitching
2-1 Hokies after an Emma Ritter BOMB to center in the top of the 4th responding to a Georgia HR in the bottom of the 3rd.
Aaand it's gone.gif
UGa put up 4 runs in the bottom of the fourth. Bad guys, 5-2
8-2 now.
8-3 Final. Hokes next play winner of Boston U and NC Central at 6pm.
Hokies will need to win this game and then beat Georgia twice to advance to Super Regional.
Seems unlikely
I'm just hoping they get the chance to try.
9 - 0 HOKIES run rule bu in five.
Let's play two tomorrow!!!
Let's WIN two tomorrow!!!
An expected start from this VT squad... Coach D'Amour continues his run of head scratching pitching rotations (as has been his standard mode of operation). Some hits that likely should have been scored as errors...
This team has to score a lot of runs to win games.
Ugh...ladies down 5-0 bottom of the 1st.
7-0 now... ugh
Check that... 8-0 top of the 4th
Was it ever announced what the hell happened with our pitching coach this season? Seems like ever since then we've been off
Nothing published since that Roanoke Times article.
Georgia just firing on all cylinders right now
Yeah I'm just ready for next season
Definitely not the season we all anticipated (Keely meant so much to this team), but it was still good by all intensive purposes (we made it to the post season.
Hopefully we can address the pitching (coach) situation this offseason.
Go Hokies!
