It’s not meant to be a rhetorical question, but the way the Lady Dragons have played this year, it very well might be.

Thirty-six games, 36 wins, 34 shutouts. It’s tough to beat that. Leading the charge has been senior pitcher Kasha Kolb.

When people put up monster stats, it’s been popular to say “those are video game numbers.”

I don’t know…even with video games, I don’t think some of these numbers could be duplicated.

So I ask, what is the most impressive? The eight perfect games? The 22 no-hitters? The 34 shutouts? The 533 K’s in 234 innings? Take your pick. Or wait, what about allowing no earned runs the entire year and only two unearned tallies all season?

With all the hoopla (deservedly so) about Kolb, coach Daryl Ping does not want to dismiss the contributions of some of the other Chelsea players.

A big move was a continuation move from last year. Halfway through last season, Ping moved leadoff hitter Chelsey Davis to the 5-spot.
