The WIAA has ruled to move the pitching rubber back from 40′ to 43′ for the upcoming and subsequent years. (43′ is the distance for international and collegiate play)

Grantsburg has always had excellent pitching and the girls have been practicing over and over at the 40′ distance (and to be fair, so has everyone else). I wonder how this will affect the pitching for Michelle Lund et. al. for the Pirates come this spring.

I’m sure the hitters will be happy to hear about the change. I would expect scoring (and walks) to be up significantly this year.

Here’s an article about the change.
