North Greene ace pitcher Kourtney Woolsey can throw the ball hard. Make no mistake about that.
But she doesn’t rely on her fastball to get batters out. No. The fastball is a tease, a different look to entice and confuse. Woolsey’s favorite pitch? Her screwball.
“I throw a lot of screwballs inside,” she said. “That’s my go-to pitch. And then every once in awhile, outside which is a curveball. Fastball, just to give them different pitches.”
Woolsey’s screwball starts off outside, and then at the last second, curves in. “You’ve just got to time it right at the plate,” she said. Of course, not many batters can.
