The softball team got off to a good start yesterday, taking a game apiece from Youngstown State and Rhode Island. Hope things keep moving in a good direction for the team and its new coach.

Dropped two today, 2-0 to the toothpaste school and 2-1 to URI. One game tomorrow to see if we can finish the weekend above .500.

The Pitching was good in all 4 games. The new pitching coach from Liberty University is making a difference. Need to close out the game tomorrow to win the weekend.

Hitting is not where we need it. We only had 1 hit against Georgia. The pitching continues to be good. The last time we played Georgia we were run ruled. Held them to 6 with 3 errors.

My stepdaughter has issues with the profanity coming out of the head coach. I wish someone would ask her to stop with the F Bombs! Unprofessional and not motivating to my daughter.

One thing is an absolute given. Chuck isn't going to do a damned thing. It would require he actually grow a pair for once, and that isn't happening.

Dropped 2 to North Carolina A&T this past weekend. We don't seem to be getting any better at hitting. 12 strikeouts in the first game. Our kids might be beat down.

We are coming off a disasterous and bizarre 2021 season that saw longtime coach Tom Cole vaporize near the end. Still don't know what happened, but that's not a surprise. Coach Wigness had a track record of success from player at Arizona State thru to HC at USC Beaufort. High batting averages are her constant attribute. Probably a little too much pressure all around now. Give them all some leeway to work this out. They'll find a way. My 2 cents as a former baseball parent at GW.

Things are not going well for Softball. My daughter says the team is told how they F ing Suck. Bats thrown in dugout trash can and told they hit like Sh.. To make things worse Coach Wigness screams and cusses out her staff publicly. And the dumbest move to date she has treated the pitching coach so bad that she has left. Pitching had improved over last years team. First time we have ever not been rule ruled by a top 25 team Georgia & Clemson ( top 20 teams). My daughter was getting better under her coaching, Since she has left we haven't won a game. I know a couple parents have went to the President over several other issues. Daughter said after East Carolina loss Coach Wigness was crying .....I would understand a player crying but not the head coach. IMHO We are going in the wrong direction.

Hate to say it, but if that is the situation, I’d pull my kid out of GW and leave. There are plenty of solid athletics programs that don’t completely fake a Christian environment.
Burch and Downs are both as useless as tits on a boar hog, and neither will do a damned thing, that’s a given.

I have to agree, IF all those instances are accurate, something has to give, right? I'll be checking out a road game soon close to my area to see for myself.

I frankly don't care about the cursing per se, or the whole "Christian environment" thing, but an abusive coach is not something any of these young women should have to put up with.
