Our Daughter is a Freshman SS at Towson University in Baltimore, The DW and I surprised her this past weekend with trip out from California, which happened to be her 18th Birthday :D ... This was Saturday 9/27 facing the University of Maryland in College Park, off of Senior Kaitlyn Schmeiser... filmed at 240fps on the new iphone 6... :) enjoy

Congrats to Brook! Hoping that's the first of many home runs for her in college.
We were fortunate enough last spring to be at our kid's tournament in Vegas to see her give up the first home run of her college career.
Deserve's got nothin' to do with it.

Good swing and I don't say that very often. If she looks that good on a pitch at the knees she's going to be a big deal for them. I bet they didn't give her a high pitch the rest of that game.

She said it was a Screw ball that she saw very well... and no, everything was down after that... :D Thanks, I got to give props to the coach that developed that swing... Pat Cochran is an amazing hitting coach, he worked with Brook for just about the last 3 years.
