  • Softball Quotes
    Softball Quotes Go hard every play. You don’t want to leave anything behind and regret it years down the road that you didn’t give it all when you could have. --Ashley DeBuhr, pitcher, Univ. of Nebraska We go out and work hard. We play this game with emotion and love. Coach always says ‘Emotionally, physically, mentally -- come to the field prepared.’ Because if you don’t bring that to the field, you’re going to get beat. --Laura Berg, outfield, Team USA I think that certain players are going to approach the game differently. I am more of a quiet person. I like to have more of a focused energy and internal energy whereas some people need to be bouncing off the walls to be ready for the game. --Caitlin Lowe, outfielder, Univ. of Arizona We’re going to step on the field knowing that every team we’re going against is going to push their game to that whole new level that we probably hadn’t seen. ... We’ve just got to be ready to step up with them --Crystl Bustos, third base, Team USA Always want the ball. --Brittany B., pitcher, Colorado Every time you go out there, you want to be a little nervous, have a little bit of butterflies in your stomach and get the juices flowing. --Taryne Mowatt, pitcher, Univ. of Arizona (On the College World Series) It’s not about the seedings, it’s not about the bats. It’s about these 18 young ladies on each team and how bad they want to win.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Julie Mason (412-496-3196) GATORADE® NATIONAL SOFTBALL PLAYER OF THE YEAR: KASEY FAGAN Former NCAA Softball World Series Champion and Gatorade National Softball Player of the Year Alicia Hollowell Surprises Standout with Elite Honor DUNNELLON, Fla. (June 16, 2010) – In its 25th year of honoring the nation’s best high school athletes, The Gatorade Company, in collaboration with ESPN RISE, today announced Kasey Fagan of Dunnellon High School (Dunnellon, Fla.) as its 2009-10 Gatorade National Softball Player of the Year. Fagan was surprised with the news during a team breakfast at Dunnellon High School by three-time World Champion and former NCAA Women’s College World Series MVP Alicia Hollowell, who earned Gatorade National Softball Player of the Year honors in 2001-02. “It felt great to surprise Kasey with the Gatorade National Softball Player of the Year award and welcome her into one of the most prestigious legacy programs in high school sports,” said Hollowell, a member of the 2008 USA Softball Women’s National Team, who holds the University of Arizona Wildcats career record for wins and strikeouts. “Gatorade has been on the sidelines fueling athletic performance for years, so to be recognized by a brand that understands the game and truly helps athletes perform is a huge honor for these kids.” By claiming the 220th National Player of the Year trophy to be awarded in the program’s 25-year history, Fagan joins former SEC Tournament MVP and LSU Tigers pitcher Dani Hofer (2004-05, Palm Harbor University, Palm Harbor) as the only high school athletes from the state of Florida to earn Gatorade National Softball Player of the Year recognition.
