Don't pay any attention to their BS. Living in the land of fruit and nuts and with a governor named Moonbeam...it's easy to become a hater...

Not doubting the claim. It's just not that big of a deal really.
Movement and spin is the big deal.

I disagree, We were there. The the two teams that had the girls who threw Hardest were the 2 teams that cruised to the finals. Now that said, BOTH of those teams are VERY talented offensively as well, but to think that the fact that those pitchers shut every one down ( Including Us ) wasn't relevant is just silly. I always find it funny when you hear a pitching coach or a parent say movement and spin is more important than velocity then you ask them what they threw in High School and they say 56. lol They cant preach speed if they never had it, and Im guessing there are Waaaay more people who didnt have that Freakish Velocity than did.
IMHO, It's all about the velocity! Just look at the teams who win the college world series traditionally. Look at the pitchers who are recognized as the best in the World. ( Here and Internationally) They all throw HARD.
Just my 2 cents.

You need both. You also need to know how to use both to be successful at the next level "Gold" and beyond.
60 mph goes much faster over the fence if isn't moving. Just saying.
