Softball capsule #39 states that it’s time to let Addie Greene be Addie Greene !

Photo πŸ“Έ from our files back during Addie’s freshman season.

In the sports world, there is a term many folks like to use, and it’s ” Having It.” There is very little doubt that young Miss Greene is in possession of ” It ” and for the Lady Cavaliers Softball program to succeed next spring, it needs to on full display.

Normally, at this point, I would plug πŸ”Œin a definition from the internet that further makes my point for me, but today, that doesn’t exist.

Two seasons ago, Carlie Beamer had the impossible task of creating senior leadership solely on her own. That is a tough task for anyone, but especially for someone who might be one of the kindest souls on earth.

Last season, there were six players trying hard to guide the way, and that is another form of a challenge. This year, there will be three as Greene will be joined by Natalie Burress and Laynie-Jo Leonard. You would be hard pressed to find a trio of ballplayers who want to succeed anymore than this group. But the key πŸ”‘ is for Greene to lead by example in her actions on the Diamond πŸ’Ž and off.

Burress is as smart as you will find on a high school diamond, and her drive to succeed is beyond question. Leonard will now have her opportunity to flourish in her new role as a leader versus a follower.

Going back a few years to when Emma Leath was finishing up her stellar four year career, she had ” It ” by the truck 🚚 load and found a way to raise the level of play of the players. It doesn’t have to be Fire and Brimstone, but ” It ” is real, and Addie Greene has it.

The song 🎡 that either made you sing loudly or change the station was ” Who let the Dogs πŸ• out ? “

Granny πŸ‘΅ picked a classic !

To let a dog out, one must have a dog to let out,  we have one, and it’s time to let her out !

Staying busy ( and out of trouble) at the Fair while Lin gets to help Vickey Ritchie by being on a panel of judges…

First things First, I think this Rooster πŸ“ would fit in nicely with our four Big Foot creatures that stay at our place in Laurel Fork.

A great deal of time and care went into creating this display !

Another connection to our group.
I’m not sure why, but this makes me think about Travis Osborne…..

Just had to sneak into the ” Judges Chamber ” for a quick look see πŸ‘€.

A local fair is such a large part of Americana, and this week should be a fun one here on The Hill…..

Thank you to Vickey Ritchie for the invite for Lin, but that is a part of Vickey being Vickey.

One of the best lines about the dedication level of Vickey came from her longtime friend and neighbor, Brandi Cochran Mitchell.

” Everything that Vickey does is the biggest thing that she does.”

When one of your dream team turns one year older you have to take a moment to say Happy Birthday πŸŽ‚πŸ₯³ ! We see πŸ‘€ you, Jay Neal, and I hope you are having a Great Day up north!!

Degree #1 came at Virginia Tech University, where he played football. Fun note, VT narrowly edged out Duke University on signing day.

Degree #2 was the law degree from William and Mary, but it’s the depth and wisdom that set Jay apart from most. We will assume that has something to do with his upbringing !

One of six people who God put in my path that allowed me to have the life that I enjoy !
