I had no cinco de mayo sips, too much crab meat did it, was dipping it my spiked butter sauce.lol Would like to do a geography study of the top 25 pitchers and top 1-4 hitters in D1, any volunteers to see where these kids resided before College???? LOL
BTW, I understand a Softball Scholarship in state or out of state is a percentage, BUT, the dollar value is important to know because it does affect the overall operating budget and a team budget is available online. So if a D1 schools budget is $500,000 a year for all softball expenses and said school took on 12 out of state athletes on a full, and out of state student cost $30,0000 per year, then they would eat most of their budget for talent, and not enough funds to play out of state or cover needed travel and equipment expenses. Which is why schools don't have 12 full ride out of state athletes on a roster, and why most scholarships are only guaranteed for one year at a time, unless it's in writing.
