The way Nija got hit around last night, I thought the team would come out with low energy and defeated attitude. So glad to be wrong. The Stanford ladies fought and fought hard. I hope the team can come out even better tomorrow. I hope Nija has more in the tank.
Wow, just Wow...what a performance!
Great comment Bampa. Very well put.
I had the game on in the background (no sound because of holiday weekend plans), but I am now watching back the highlights, and one thing I am struck by is how much success NiJaree and Coach Nyberg had jamming the hitters inside. Normally, that can be a risky strategy to go in, particularly if the pitch is left up (because many hitters can take that pitch for extra bases/home run). But I have counted at least three times where jamming the LSU hitter in induced an out.
Excellent game plan from Coach Nyberg, and just really well executed by NiJaree. So proud of the fight this team showed today.
