Great hire! I was hoping for Whitney Goldstein but this is a great hire none the less.

Hadn't really followed UMass softball all that much, but started hearing the name Danielle Henderson an awful lot back in the day, dominant pitcher. Great credentials, appears to be a great hire. Damn, we've had some seriously good softball pitchers at UMass!

couldn't ask for a better pedigree for a Massachusetts softball coach.
All due respect, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart, I'm gonna pass.

Watching JMU give mega-power Oklahoma a loss in NCAA Tournament game 1 and then give them fits in game 2 brought back memories of past UMass successes. Really hopeful that Danielle can get us back to the upper class of NCAA softball. Great hire.

Mess?? They had a tough year this year losing some pitchers to injury. Plus and a third of their conference games were against the number 1 team in the A10. Obviously covid was a lost year. The four years prior to that were a first, 2 seconds, and a 3rd in the A10 along with a coach of the year.. something MBB would kill for. Don't get me wrong Harry is awesome and really hope she does well here. A friend told me, who has been at Umass for a long time said "I just feel bad she has to work for this administration".

Three commits this week: catcher, pitcher (from Worcester) and first base. Pitcher and first base look like big kids.
