06/24/2013 - Softball Factory World Series Allison continues to develop athletically with maturity. Her positive attitude, good work ethic, willingness to learn and make adjustments set a tone on the field. As an IF, she presents well, has an accurate arm, active footwork, and decent range. Continuing to focus on confident glovework, controlled approaches, quick transfers, and angles to various balls will increase range and efficiency. As a hitter, she has a short bat path, fluid rhythm/timing, hits through the ball with the lower half producing contact. Continuing to focus on a stride and load, keeping the shoulders and hips square, keeping the front side closed through contact point, and a quick bat will increase power and efficiency. Implementing a strength and conditioning program will increase speed, agility, power, body awareness, and coordination. As Allison continues to develop and mature through application and experience, she will be on track for seeking collegiate attention.
