Tips From Two-Time Olympic Gold Medalist Michele Smith

Posted by Derek H on Mar 4, 2013 2:58:21 AM

Working at JustBats.com allows us to meet with some really cool people and even some ex-ballplayers (perhaps you’ve seen Hall of Famer George Brett in some of our promotional videos). Another Hall of Famer seen hanging around our facility is two-time Olympic fastpitch gold medal winner Michele Smith.

For those of you not familiar with Michele, she overcame a potential career-ending car accident while in college. Michele faced her adversity with a can-do attitude, and with hard work and rehab, became one of the most decorated pitchers in American fastpitch history.

Michele was nice enough to put together some training videos for us to share with you. We’ll begin sharing those with you as we get closer to the start of the Spring season. Today, Michele will share her story with us and also tell you how to properly choose a bat.
