Based on my last week of fielding and striking I feel that I played the mid outfield position the best because I am able to run to get the ball if it is batted far and be able to get it back to the base. The position that is most challenging is the pitcher because if the ball goes out of your control or if it is not thrown properly, then it is difficult to hit it for the batter. In order to be mid outfielder, I contain the ability to run fast and get it and also my hand eye coordination which is needed to get it back to the base in time.
I feel i performed best at outfield because I could more easily catch a fly ball or pass to my teammates to help us win. Pitching was most challenging for me because my pitches were always too high, too low, too fast, too slow, to the right, to the left and never were hittable. I am good at running and reacting to the ball once it has been hit making me best at my position, outfield.
Dear Ms Dyer,
I think that I didn't do my best. During the game, I missed catching the ball. I think that being in the outfield is one of the challenging position. There is more pressure in the out field. I then chose 1st base, because hte position didn't have as much pressure. I also got better at catching.

Based on the last week of fielding and striking, I feel I am best at centerfield. This is because I am good at throwing the ball to others to get opposing team members out. However, I could improve this position by improving my catching skills, so I can throw the ball faster, without having to chase after the uncaught ball. I am fairly good at running from base to base as well. I believe I am worst at being a catcher, because, as I previously stated, I am bad at catching. I also could improve my batting skills; such as standing in the right position to bat. I could also sharpen my kicking skills [kickball] because I often foul the ball. I am small, so it's good to snake through opposing field members to get to the bases. My upper arm strength helps me to excel in throwing the ball. My off hand eye coordination and foot eye coordination hurts me when I try to bat or kick or catch the ball.

I believe i performed best at outfield since i am tall so i have a higher reach. the most challenging position was probably pitcher since i can't throw underhand at all. Some physicial attributes I think i possess that makes me best at outfield is at that i'm tall so i have a long reach and armspan. Also i can jump high, which helps with my catching.

Based on my last week of fielding and striking, i think i performed best at being the center in the outfield because i could run to the ball quickly and return it to my teammates. The most challenging position for me would have to be the batter. Today when we played softball, i had trouble hitting the ball with the bat because I'm not the best softball player. My running skill helps me the most when i play outfield. I can run quickly towards the ball to bring it back to the pitcher or my other teammates.
Based on the fielding and striking unit so far, I feel like my bset position is either 3rd or 1st base because i can catch the ball well from someone throwing it to me. The most challenging position to me is probably 1st base because the ball comes to you frequently. What makes me good at fielding and striking is my running ability around the bases and my ability to catch the balls in the air.
Our team sucked so much. We lost every game we played. I felt I did alright on the batting part because 95% of our batters got out or did not score any runs and I was the first and only team member to make it to first base yesterday. I am ok at this because I can actually hit the ball.
I think that i played best in the outfield because i can catch and throw the ball. The position that was the most challenging for me was catcher because sometimes i couldn't get to the balls that were hit right in front of me to 1st base. I am good at catching fly balls so my best position is outfield.

I believe in fielding and striking I perform best at the bases because I tired outfield, and I could not catch the balls fast enough to get someone out. Even though I can't really catch balls flying toward me, I think third base is fine. Batting is challenging because I'm not sure when to swing, or how much force to apply. I'm not sure what makes me the "best" at my position.
Christopher Wong:
I think the position I play best is a shortstop. I can't really play as an outfielder because I don't have a very strong throwing arm, but I can pass the ball well over short distances and can react quickly to different situations. A shortstop has to cover for a second baser if the second baser has to go for a ball.
During fielding and striking I thought I played best at shortstop. I have a strong enough arm to get the softball and wiffle ball accurately to first but it was difficult to get a good grip on the kickball. I thought it was easiest to catch and throw in softball and hardest with the kickball because of it's size and it was always wet, making the ball slippery.
Max Goldschein:
Based on my last week of fielding and striking i feel that my best position is pitcher, because my athletic abilities and prior experience with the games enable me to make plays like fielding a ground ball or catching a fly ball. A position that is difficult for me is catcher because i am not that good at it and i'm not familiar with it. My running abilities and accuracy allow me to pitch well and field balls that come to me well

i am ok at short stop i guess cuz i can get the ball kinda well, which is well cuz ppl hit the ball there alot. i am bad at pitching cuz i cant aim underhand at all, so my pitches sucked. i guess physical stuff about me is i am kind of tall so i can reach balls on the ground or in the air easily
Based on my last week of fielding and striking i'v learned that im not really good in any defensive position and i especially struggle with being an infielder. I struggle with catching the ball and i admit im scared of the ball. I think im Ok at batting because i had several good hits but not so good at defense.
Thanh Pham
Based on the last week of fielding and striking I feel like I'm not a good catcher because It's a bit hard for me to catch the ball sometimes underneath or above. I didnt know the rules clearly. I think its good for me to stand in the base. However, I will improve my catching and know I also know the rules by my the members in my team.
In fielding and striking I feel that I played the catcher position the best because I am able to through the ball faster and longer than the other people on our team. I also have good hand-eye coordination...I don't feel liking bragging but most of the people that posted are so I guess I'll do it too...

I feel that I performed best at outfield because I was good at catching pop ups and assisting an out. The position that was most challenging for me was pitcher because some of my pitches were too high or too low, and were not hittable. Some attributes that help me do well at playing outfield is my ability to run fast and my coordination.
I think I played okay in shortstop because at times I would miss the ball and other times I would catch it and get people out. Playing third base was kinda of hard for me since im not a very good at catching the ball and on top of that running to tag the base. Since I am a bit shorter than my teammates I guess, it is easier for me to get the grounders.
Katie Perroots:
After fielding an striking, I found that I play second base best. It was challenging to get the ground balls, and I found that hitting ground balls gets me and more likely chance of getting on base than hitting it harder. I can throw fairly far, which made playing 2nd easiest for me.
Max Katz truly stated:
Yea, so last week I was playing a lot of second base and it seemed to be my better position. I am rather quick on my feet so I could get ground balls that came to me. The hardest position for me to play was catcher. I like being in the field and participating on every live ball, I could not do so as a catcher. And by the way, SWAZIMAICA 3-0!!!
Tommy Yeung
The position i played best was at third base because i could catch the ball and throw it to antoher one of my team mates and i could move in and catch bunts. The position that was most difficult was playing catcher because i had no idea what i was doing and it was hard to see out of the mask
mia lee
for me catching was easy but pitching was really hard, I always messed up and once I almost hit someone. Catching was easy because the balls were never to fast and catching its self is easy.
Richard Prather
I Feel I preformed best as a shortstop because I knew my responsibilities, and I could cover second base or chase down a ball that had landed in the field.
Sergio Mejia, Pd: 3
Based on last week field and striking I played 3rd base but I did not feel that it was my best. I did better playing mid outifield because I had the ability to catch the ball if my team mates were not able to or if the ball was hit far. I have a good reaction for where the ball is going to go and I can run fast and get to it. 3rd base was not my favorite because i could only stay at third and sometimes I couldnt get my foot on the base and get the person out.
During fielding and striking last week, I think I performed best at first base because I am good at catching and I had a good background knowledge of that position. The most challenging position for me was pitcher because I was only allowed to throw underhanded which made it easy for the batter to hit the ball.

I think that I performed the best at right field because i was able to catch or get to any ball that came my way and I was able to pass the ball in quickly. I think that 1st base was the hardest position for me because I was responsible for any ball that came from in between 2nd and 1st base and that I was responsible for gettting every single player that bats out. I chose right field and I was good at it because I'm able to run fast to get to farther balls and I am always aware of where the ball is during the game.
Last week's fielding and striking unit showed me that I am not a very good softball player, but am OK in everything. I didn't find anything very challenging, nor very easy.

I was best at any outfield position during last week's fielding and striking games. This is because I am good at catching the ball and can throw accurately enough for someone on a base to catch it (most of the time). Being able to run quickly and having hand-eye coordination helped me with this position. The hardest position for me was third base, because few hitters got there and usually the ball was coming from a long way away, and not always straight to you, which made it difficult to catch.
Julian Pecce:
I think during our fielding and striking unit, that i performed best at left field because i have a lot of experience in the outfield. I think the most challenging position for me to play would have been pitcher because i am not familiar with that position and throwing the ball underhand is not one of my natural talents.I think i played outfield well because i can run fast and field easily.
Nathan Wong
From fielding and striking, I think I best played the catcher's position well. I was able to catch the ball well and prevent the other team from scoring too often. I believe the most difficult position is pitcher, as alot of practice is needed to fulfill the role of pitcher. I believe my hand eye coordination allowed me to play catcher very well.
james rowe:
Based on last weeks feilding and striking I feel that I played left feild the best I could because I tried catching the ball.the position that is most hard is being the catcher because it si hard to know if the batter is going to hit the ball.
Akhila Vishnubhotla:
I think I played best at outfield because I can actually catch the ball. I was the worst as the center player (I think thats what its called...) because I can't throw the ball to the quarterback like I'm supposed to and that will hurt the whole team in the game.
i think in one on one situation, i need to know when to shot a jumper and when to drive in for a layup.
