Wow… another year is rapidly coming to a close and we at Line Drive Softball will be recognizing the top fastpitch stories of the year later this month…

… and you can share your opinion of which stories from 2024 were the most impactful!

Two weeks from this Monday—on Monday, Dec. 23, 2024—we will begin our countdown of the Top 10 Softball Stories of 2024.

Each day through New Year’s Day 2025, we will spotlight a story that we believe impacted our sport with the following schedule:

• Top 10 Softball Stories of the Year: #10 – Mon, Dec. 23, 2024
• Top 10 Softball Stories of the Year: #9 – Tue, Dec. 24, 2024
• Top 10 Softball Stories of the Year: #8 – Wed, Dec. 25, 2024
• Top 10 Softball Stories of the Year: #7 – Thu, Dec. 26, 2024
• Top 10 Softball Stories of the Year: #6 – Fri, Dec. 27, 2024
• Top 10 Softball Stories of the Year: #5 – Sat, Dec. 28, 2024
• Top 10 Softball Stories of the Year: #4 – Sun, Dec. 29, 2024
• Top 10 Softball Stories of the Year: #3 – Mon, Dec. 30, 2024
• Top 10 Softball Stories of the Year: #2 – Tue, Dec. 31, 2024
• Top 10 Softball Stories of the Year: #1 – Wed, Jan. 1, 2025

Perhaps it was something on the field, like Oklahoma winning another National Championship… or off the field, perhaps the Transfer Portal or the increasing impact of the NIL situation.

Maybe it was a heart-warming human interest story… or something not so positive that has impacted a player, family, team or the entire sport. These stories can be youth-oriented, club, college, international, pro… whatever YOU feel was most powerful and significant to the sport this year!

Let us know what you think… email me at Brentt.Eads@LineDriveMedia.com and provide your feedback.

Note that the deadline to submit ideas is Friday, Dec. 20, 2024 @ noon EST.
