Oklahoma State softball coach Kenny Gajewski addressed the media at USA Softball Hall of Fame Stadium on Wednesday.
The coach called Kelly Maxwell "one of the top left-handers in the world."
Strong claim. When you know Gajewski's three-year-old analysis, it's even stronger.
Gajewski said last month, "She couldn't get anybody her first year." "Seeing what she's become after knowing that is incredible."
Gajewski won't flinch when entering Maxwell's name into the pitcher's spot on the lineup card Thursday before the Cowgirls play Arizona in the first round
Gajewski has put Maxwell to the circle for key games this season, and she's delivered.
Maxwell has allowed one earned run in 30 2/3 postseason innings since the Big 12 Tournament.
