BOTSE Live: Pins Learning to Produce under Pressure

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Live Coverage — Beast of the Southeast</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As the weekend wears on and legs get heavier, pin hitters are being tested in real time. Clean rhythm hasn't always been available, which makes adaptability and decision‑making even more important. These outside hitters stood out live for staying aggressive, adjusting under pressure, and continuing to generate offense when rallies stretched long.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Marli Robinson","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"32564","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"SVC","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-698cd5c6535a0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Robinson applied steady offensive pressure from the left side and didn't force swings when blocks were set. She adjusted her shot selection well and stayed active in transition. Her composure allowed her to stay efficient rather than rushed. That patience translated into consistent production.<strong><em> ~ Z.R.
