I've really been enjoying your podcast. I found it a week ago and have binged on it. Very well done. Everyone wants inside baseball on a subject. I feel like I'm getting a lot of that in this space. So, Thanks!! We come from a rural area (South Dakota) where softball looks a lot different than Southern California or Texas. I'm curious if Lacie has run into other current players who have a small town experience where they had to fight to develop and get noticed and have succeeded.
