    Braking News The Official Newsletter of the Stratford Brakettes/Junior Brakettes/18U Select Brakettes Volumne 3,Issue 2 Editor: Bob Baird (203) 218-1066 December 2020 FAU SLUGGER ANSWERED THE ‘CALL’ FOR THE STRATFORD BRAKETTES Stephanie Call never got the opportunity to represent the United States on the softball diamond. She played her Brakettes career just three years into a 12-year hiatus from softball’s next scheduled appearance in the 2020 Olympics. Well, she finally got her chance to play for Team USA last summer as a member of the USA Softball Women’s Slow Pitch Futures team. It’s doubtful she would have received a look if there had been Olympic Games in 2012 or 2016 since the selection process is heavily slanted toward college standouts in the Power Five Conferences. It’s similar to the College Football Playoff where the SEC, Big Ten, and ACC are the chief powerbrokers. Nevertheless, Stephanie Call played on some of the finest teams in Brakettes softball history from 2011-2014. She played three years and eight games, a total of 202 games. During that time the Brakettes compiled a 200-8 overall record and posted two unbeaten seasons (2011 and 2013). Coming to Stratford from Florida Atlantic University, where she played for Hall of Famer Joan Joyce, the 6-foot-2 Call arrived highly touted and she didn’t disappoint. The Fort Lake, FL, native set the individual season home run record with 31 in her first year and followed with marks of 21 and 22. Coming back for a long weekend in 2014, Call played in eight wins and hit five solo homers in 16 at bats, finishing her career with 79 home runs, good for the No.

  • National Pro Fastpitch Comes to All Sports Television Network
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE National Pro Fastpitch Comes to All Sports Television Network All Sports Television Network will broadcast National Pro Fastpitch softball league games. Tuesday, September 8, 2020 Las Vegas, NV – All Sports Television Network (ALL SPORTS) announces that it has entered into an agreement to broadcast National Pro Fastpitch (NPF) softball league games. Under the agreement, ALL SPORTS will air NPF’s prior season league games, which serves as a prelude to the upcoming summer Olympic games. "We are thrilled to be bringing professional fast pitch softball to American television viewers," stated ALL SPORTS President Roger Neal Smith. "Our decision to air the games actually addresses two issues that I believe to be very important. First, since some of these athletes will be representing the U.S. in the upcoming summer Olympics, they should get the Cleveland Comets vs. Canadian Wild Photo Credit: Canadian Wild recognition that they deserve, even prior to the games. Courtesy of National Pro Fastpitch Second, and more important, I believe that women’s sports are woefully underrepresented on television and the media in general. ALL SPORTS plans to change that situation. We intend to let the American public see that there are many very talented women athletes worldwide and that women sports are just as entertaining as their male counterparts." About National Pro Fastpitch (NPF) National Pro Fastpitch (NPF), an Official Development Partner of Major League Baseball since 2004, provides elite female athletes with an opportunity to pursue a professional career in fastpitch softball beyond their collegiate and amateur success.
