Title: Fall Brawl #2 (SoftBall) Post by: Jamos on October 19, 2014, 09:16:39 PM I know everybody isn't interested in softball right now with football being in mid season but I thought a few of you might be interested.
I missed last weeks fall brawl due to being out of state but I just had to go see the new pitcher, Alexis Osorio today and I'm glad I did. Bama looks a little different this year due to graduation last year but I was very pleased with the new additions to the team. The new additions are Demi Turner (infield), Rachel Bobo (Outfield), Kayla Rettig (outfield), Carrigan Fain (catcher) and Alexis Osorio (pitcher). Bobo and Rettig are walkons and CPM was grinning from ear to ear about them. Both players parents graduated fro Alabama and one of them is majoring in electrical engineering and the other is majoring in chemical engineering. Their ability to walk on is that one of them scored a 31 on her ACT exam and the other scored a 32, scholarships took care of them. This is a big plus for CPM not having to provide any type of aid for them. All five of them were impressive in the games today. Osorio, the new pitcher is very impressive, her pitching style is similar to Littlejohn's. Littlejohn seems to have been really working on her pitching, everything she throws is breaking balls and her willingness to throw in on the batters hasn't changed a bit. Osorio is very smooth with her delivery and has tremendous spin on the ball and very good control. Leslie Jury seems to be the same pitcher that we have seen for 4 years, still throws hard but her control is still iffy. I was hoping that after Jury had played with Littlejohn last year that she would work on slowing down her pitches and spinning the ball more but that didn't seem to be the case today. The other players that joined the team this year swung the bat pretty good today and played very good in the field. All of you have seen Haylie McCleney play and know how good she is but Bama may have another star bound player this year. She is freshman Demi Turner, infielder from Huntsville, Texas. She is as athletic as Haylie and plays with very good skills. She played second base today and Bama has never had a second baseman like this young lady played today. She has good speed and swings a good bat as well, lefty. The catcher position is up for grabs as CPM is working 4 players at that position now, Chaunsey Bell, Leona Lafaele, Peyton Grantham and Carrigan Fain (freshman). Peyton played third base last year but she looked pretty good as she took her turn behind the plate today. Bama will play Fall Brawl 3 and 4 next Saturday and Sunday with a double header each http://www.rolltide.com/sports/w-softbl/recaps/101914aaa.html Title: Re: Fall Brawl #2 (SoftBall) Post by: 2Stater on October 19, 2014, 09:21:28 PM Good stuff, J.

There are 12 full scholarships available. They can be divided up into partial scholarships to make them go further but getting two quality walkons is huge.
We will miss all the seniors but J-Train and Kayla Hunt will be hard to replace. They were solid players all 4 years at Alabama. CPM has got this program on a roll. I do not see any reason we can not compete for SEC and National Championships again this year.

I do not see any reason we can not compete for SEC and National Championships again this year. I have to agree with you you on their chances of having a great year. These freshmen of today are much better than the freshmen of the past and that can be credited to to all of the travel teams that they have now. I'm anxious to see what role Osorio will play in the early season next year. Littlejohn never started any games early in the season last year, just Jury and Traina. From what I saw yesterday, I think it won't take her long to be the #2 pitcher. Also, I think they will be much better defensively.

When the announcer introduced the players for the game guess who he introduced for the Bama team? You got it, Demi Moore. I guess he's been looking for a dishwasher too. ;) Title: Re: Fall Brawl #2 (SoftBall) Post by: 2Stater on October 29, 2014, 03:35:33 PM Thanks for the update Jamos.
