There are indeterminate methods in which to measure the growth and development of an individual player and a team.
But sometimes the numbers don’t lie.
For the Tennessee Thunderbolts Premier 2027 softball team, the numbers tell the story of a program that is rapidly ascending in the southeast and on a nationwide basis. In the spring of 2022 the team posted a 51-17-3 record, in the fall of 2022 the Bolts went 19-7-1, in the summer of 2023 the team posted a 42-13 record and in the fall of 2023 they went 21-4-2.
The Thunderbolts, from Nashville, Tenn., hold the distinction of being the sole 14u team outside of Birmingham, Ala., to bear the premier title from the Thunderbolts organization.
