2020 CF/2B Hallie Wacaser Commits To FSU

When they asked me to share my story I was super excited! This journey has been such a crazy ride and I am so blessed to say that I will be a Florida State Seminole in 4 years!

Florida State was always my dream school. I remember watching games with my dad on TV and dressing up as a Florida State cheerleader for Halloween.When I was 12, I begged my parents to let me go to a Florida State softball camp, which is the #1 rated camp in the country. It was the summer of my 7th grade year, and when I stepped onto campus I was amazed. It was so pretty and the weather was amazing. The camp was GREAT and the family atmosphere Coach Alameda, Coach Snider, Coach Wilson and the players create is truly one of a kind. They welcome everyone with a smile and work with you to make you the best player you can be. One thing about me that really stood out to the FSU coaches was my bat speed and how violent my swing is. They loved my arm in the outfield and how I had speed around the bases. After the camp, Coach Snider asked me to come down to their winter camp, and from there, my FSU dream began to skyrocket.

Even though FSU was my dream school, I did make a few additional stops along the recruiting journey. During this time, I was blessed with several opportunities with top programs and got to meet amazing coaches along the way. Each school and coach was special in their own way, but deep down I knew that FSU was my home. Not only was it my dream school but I have family in the area, and I cannot forget the fact that I am a warm weather girl.

I have been playing softball since I was 5, and started playing travel ball at 9. Arkansas has some awesome softball players, and I played for a great regional organization for many years. During that time, I met my best friend Alex McManus, who is an amazing pitcher. Both Alex and I aspired to play D1 softball and she later committed to play for Notre Dame. We love to compete and we wanted to play the best competition possible, so when we were asked to join the Beverly Bandits out of Chicago, we both jumped in. I must say, it has been one of the best decisions I have made. I love the accountability and drive, and my teammates inspire me to work hard every day so I can play to the best of my potential. Since Alex and I live in Arkansas we practice together at home. The competitive spirit is alive in each practice, and we push each other to be the best we can be. I admired Alex when she committed to Notre Dame last year, and it motivated me even more to fulfill my dream. In March, I committed to Florida State and now we will get to play against each other in the ACC.

There are many coaches who have believed in me along the way, and I can't thank them enough -- From Jason Wildeman and the NWA Knockouts organization, my pitching coach Kris Munson, as well as Ramsey Harkness with the Beverly Bandits. Additionally, I take a lot of pride in my hitting and would like to give a special shout out to Coy Akins, Randi Wilson and George McManus for molding me into the offensive player I am today. But one person I can never thank enough is my dad. Being my #1 fan and friend through all the ups and downs is beyond compare. Now that I have started my high school journey, I am super excited that I have an AWESOME high school coach, Anthony Cantrell. He brings energy, knowledge, and experience coaching at a high level, leading several D1 athletes!

Overall, this journey has been a blast and I can't thank the man upstairs enough for blessing me with this opportunity! Anyway, GOOOOOOOO NOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Detroit Tigers center fielder JaCoby Jones required nine stitches to repair a cut on his lip after he was hit in the face by a fastball Saturday, but he didn't lose any teeth and feels "lucky" he didn't get hurt worse.

"My teeth still hurt, but they said everything was intact and they were still there," Jones told reporters, according to MLB.com. "I still have to get a CT scan when I get back to Detroit. Everything feels normal. I can bite down. It's just my lip. [My] teeth are sore, but other than that, it just feels like I got punched in the face.

"It could've knocked out all my teeth or struck me square in the eye. I am lucky it hit me in my big lip and just made it bigger. It's all good."

Jones left in the third inning against Minnesota on Saturday when he was drilled in the left side of his mouth by a 90 mph fastball from Twins reliever Justin Haley. Jones went down but then sprang to his feet, tossed his helmet away and ran up the third-base line in the direction of the Tigers' dugout. He was met by manager Brad Ausmus and a trainer, who put a towel to Jones' bleeding mouth. Jones was later taken to the hospital.

Detroit starter Matthew Boyd was ejected two innings later Saturday when he threw behind Twins slugger Miguel Sano, who pointed his finger at Boyd and yelled out toward the mound. Tigers catcher James McCann intervened and appeared to put his mitt in the face of Sano, who reacted immediately with a punch to McCann's mask and chest protector, touching off a bench-clearing scuffle.

There was plenty of pushing and shoving near home plate as both benches and bullpens emptied, but there did not appear to be any other punches thrown. Sano and Boyd were both ejected.

Jones was placed on the 10-day disabled list before Sunday's game at Minnesota. Ausmus said Sunday that he doesn't expect Jones to be out long.

Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

Bespoke furniture manufacturer Pure CF has completed a major order for restaurant chain Wagamama.

The Stone company has manufactured more than 200 items of furniture for the Asian food chain's American restaurant, in Fifth Avenue, New York.

It is the first Manhattan restaurant to be opened by the Japanese-inspired noodle bar, which has more than 150 locations worldwide.

Pure CF, based at the Whitebridge Industrial Estate in Stone, shipped out 214 individually hand-made items of furniture, including wooden stools, benches, booth seats and tables.

The company boasts a client-base of big-name restaurant chains including Harvester, Cafe Rouge, Bella Italia, Pizza Express and Jamie's Italian.

Wagamama's new American restaurant boasts more than 200 pieces of furniture manufactured in Stone.

Executive chairman Paul Gill said: Pure CF are proud to have been supplying bespoke contract furniture to Wagamama for more than five years, working alongside their professional in-house project team on both new sites and improving existing sites.

We are also really proud that our furniture, made at our premises in Stone, has taken pride of place in Wagamama's Fifth Avenue restaurant. This latest venture strengthens a long-standing relationship with Wagamama, which sources the furniture for its restaurants exclusively from Pure CF."

Paul added the relationship with Wagamama is going from 'strength-to-strength' and confirmed the company will supply furniture for its next restaurant, in Italy.

Richard Pratt, project manager at Wagamama said: Pure CF have been working with us in the UK for a number of years, helping us to continually innovate the customer experience, while maintaining our iconic sharing refectory tables and benches.

It was therefore a natural choice for us to partner with Pure CF as we took Wagamama stateside and into New York City. Pure CF worked with us from the initial design stage, supporting us to shape the restaurant into what has become known as the Wagamama brand marketing tool.

"With their dedication, professionalism and on-site expertise working with our American partners, we have delivered a ground-breaking and game-changing Wagamama restaurant at the heart of New York City."

Pure CF, has a workforce of about 120 staff and boasts a turnover of more than 8.5 million. Locally, the company has fitted out The Swan with Two Necks, in Blackbrook, Newcastle, and The Wayfarer and Roo's cocktail bar, both in Stone.

ALBUM REVIEW: Rolling Blackouts C.F. The French Press (Sub Pop Records) 2017

Melbourne, Australia-based Rolling Blackouts C.F. (C.F. is short for Coastal Fever), a melodic, indie-pop quintet, are a new band to me and bring to mind sounds I admired and enjoyed over 20 years ago, when bands like Velocity Girl, The Ocean Blue and Poole were charming the pants off folks with their sweet-n-sour lyrics and sugary instrumentation.

With The French Press, released on Seattles famous Sub Pop label, the literate and insightful Rolling Blackouts C.F. (think any number of bands on the defunct Sarah Records label) are following up on the critically-acclaimed Talk Tight.

With these six songs (making this recording more of an EP), Tom Russo (guitar/vocals); Joe Russo (bass); Joe White (vocals/keyboards/guitar); Fran Keaney (vocals, guitar); and Marcel Tussie (drums), click along on song-after-song.

A nice, rocking outro on French Press keeps my interest to the very last note, while Julies Place is classic indie-pop heaven.

These are some lovesick romantics, these Rolling Blackouts. But dont let that fact turn you off. These sounds are seemingly from another time. A smarter time. It almost seems out of place in The New Dumb of 2017.

But there you are. A pleasant surprise. So glad music like this is still being made.

I mean Dig Up, with its strummy, acoustic guitar intro and soft drums is almost reminiscent of the Beatles Things We Said Today. And lyrics like: I stand by / under marigold light / Seabirds in flight / Salt of the breeze / Crickets for company / Crickets and you.

Its too pretty and adorable, gang. Im a sucker for this stuff.

Sick Bug is reminiscent of melancholy, post-punk pop with some ringing guitar lines thrown in for good measure as the line I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you is repeated, in all urgency.

The sweet ache of Colours Run and Fountain of Good Fortune with its melancholy nature and poppy desires of unrequited love and youthful apprehensions grab you by the heart in a way.

Rolling Blackouts C.F. have something amazing. And The French Press is a great place to get acquainted.

BATON ROUGE, La. LSU freshman center fielder Zach Watson is not going to have a crisis of confidence any time soon.

Watson is the hottest bat in the Tigers lineup. Heading into a crucial series at Kentucky, hes reached base in 24 consecutive games and has hits in the last 12 games. Notably, hes very aware of those numbers and embraces the challenge of makingthem rise.

I think about it every at-bat, every game, Watson admitted. I go into the game knowing what streak Im on. Ive got to get a hit this game, Ive got to get on somehow. Its a big thing to me. To do this as a freshman is a big thing. I want to see how long I can keep it going.

That might sound me-first, but it really isnt. Watson knows a hitting streak doesnt mean anything if those knocks come in situations that do nothing to benefit the Tigers.

I dont want one hit, but multiple hits a game, he said. I want to do my best for the team.

Plus, he looks at it as a bit of a reverse superstition. Streaks and no-hitters are the types of things that ballplayers dont mention in the dugout, but Watson doesnt subscribe to that behavior.

Ive got to mention it every time, Watson said. If I dont mention it, Ill end it.

His ascent is notable foran LSU offense that went through the doldrums for its first few SEC series. Watson started the year on the bench. Coach Paul Mainieri then plugged him in to bolster LSUs defense in center even though he was a shortstop in high school.

It took some getting used to, but after practicing every day Im very used to it, Watson said. I feel like Ive played it forever.

Watson spent the bulk of his early games as LSUs No. 9 hitter. He thinks it was a crucial move by Mainieri that helped bolster a confidence that now seems unflappable.

It allowed me to be at the bottom of the lineup, and yet Im the second leadoff, Watson said. You need a good guy down there thats going to hit the ball thats got some wheels. I saw it as an opportunity to be the second leadoff and get on base one way or the other.

The experiment worked so well that Mainieri can no longer chance waiting for the first inning to end before Watson steps into the batters box. The West Ouachita (La.) High grad has batted in the No. 3 hole in front of slugger Greg Deichmann in LSUs past two games.

When I looked at the lineup and saw myself in the 3-hole I said Oh, I like this. I can get on and Greg can drive me in, Watson said. Its a win-win situation.

Watson doesnt appear to be much of a power threat, putting only 166 pounds on his 6-foot frame. But hes second behind Deichmann on the team with a .475 slugging percentage.

He doesnt come across as being a really athletic guy because hes just not a really big guy, Mainieri said. But hes really wiry strong, and he can run. And hes got a little bit of that it factor too.

Whether its the it factor or simply skill, Watson wants to make sure he can keep contributing to the offense and stay inthe heart of the order.

I dont want to give Coach Mainieri a reason to take me out of the 3-hole, Watson said. It might have been a (short-term)thing, I dont know. He knows what hes doing. I trust him.
