More Jennie Finch quote about:

“Never limit yourself, never be satisfied, and smile-it's free!”
-- Jennie Finch

#Limits #Satisfied
“I think that when young players really see their game rise next level, it's when practices are like competition and there's no separation there. Of course, there are adrenaline and the butterflies; you don't have that so much in practice. You want to fake yourself out and try to get them there because you want to be as close to that game mentality as you can when you step on that field every single day whether it's practice or in your backyard or down the street with your dad.”
