The ReSporter wanted to get with Head Softball Coach John Gallagher as this season

Head Softball Coach John Gallagher
starts this week in the Navarro Tournament.
The ReSporter: What type of team (young or old) is hindered the most wen losing games because ow weather?
Coach John Gallagher: “I am not sure it affects either any differently because it’s so early on that everyone is looking to get as much work as they can before starting games. Obviously, it has hampered us by not having good weather to get in the work we need.”
The ReSporter: With a bad week of weather, how do you work on the basic skills these girls need to progress?
Coach John Gallagher: “With bad weather we spent three days outside working on throwing, fielding, and bunting. Getting used to the cold weather was the goal. We stressed playing in these type of conditions you need to be sure-handed and stay moving. One day we spent in the gym working on hitting and bare-hand catching with softie balls as well as catching up on conditioning.”
