What do you think helped russell-flatwoods win state and go on to region against some of the best teams in the nation 2 years in a row. I can help you pitching and defense mixed in with some good hitting. If theres one thing this freshman group for Russell knows how to do it is win.

And while this group was playing little league, Ashland's girls were playing varsity softball. I agree that Russell has a solid squad and should contend and could beat Ashland, just that Ashland's time is now, Russell's best years may still be shortly down the road.

Thanks for the tutorial on the craft of softball. I see much more clearly now.
