Hitting camp and lessons
This past weekend Alicia attended a hitting clinic at the UNC Chapel Hill campus. This is her in the picture with one of the players and the head coach.
Alicia was very disappointed that her team has taken the month of November and December off from training. She feels it is very important to continue to practice. Alicia's love is softball and though others choose to play other sports she continues to work on her game. Her pitching coach, Vanessa, always stresses muscle memory and when you play other sports you will be using different muscles in different ways. If she continues to work on her softball game her muscle memory with be increased.
Alicia has recently started working with Gwen Johnson, a part time coach at UNCG, to improve her hitting. Gwen was one of UNCG's toughest hitters. She is not only teaching Alicia the skills of hitting but also the mental attitude.
