McKenna Arriola
is a junior and part of Berg's highly ranked class a couple years ago. Poor girl has committed 11 errors in 11 games. I can only imagine she is pressing.
I mentioned in an earlier post I wondered if Berg had the hitters overthinking at the plate. With McKenna's 11 errors and the rest of the teams 9 other I wonder if they're all overthinking in the field as well.
Girls are doing pretty good so far but I know they can do better.
Because Berg was such a great player, most decorated in softball, I wonder how that translates in coaching. I remember when Magic gave coaching a whirl and it didn't go to well. In fact, it's pretty common for the great ones to be poor coaches. I hope Berg proves that trend wrong.

Wasn't that recruiting class ranked it in the top 10 in the country? Really hasn't translated much to wins on the field. |

It seems to me that so far Berg has shown to be an above average coach. She just has not been able to that next step to being a very good or great coach. So I would say she is proving that a great player can be an above average coach. I haven't felt like she is in that poor coach realm at this point in time. What are your thoughts about that? Agree or disagree? I appreciate your information on the Softball team as you follow more closely than me. |

I just wonder if the girls feel pressure to 'live up' to the standard she was as a player and have a hard time relaxing. The girls unanimously say they like her in their bio's so I'm sure she helps them. She seems like a very encouraging coach. |
