Amy Malbon. One of the best first baseman in kickball regardless of sex.

Chelsea Lanahan- NYSH

Didn't know much about her until we played them last year and she trotted out there in a bright PINK cast, and didn't miss a beat. I don't think you'll find a female that's as well rounded on both sides of the ball.

Molly- The Situation

Solid bunter with above average speed and sure handed on defense.

i agree all above females are great players.

3 RKIS in a circuit final by a female is unheard of though

That is true. Audra has definitely impressed me in the few tournaments I've seen her play. I haven't seen her defense (probably b/c she gets put in RF) but she has the offensive skills that very few females have (Power, touch and speed).

I would say this is definitely Audra. She's probably the best girl offensively on the circuit and she is one of the best defensively. If Jess missed a tournament, Audra would be in left left field and they wouldn't miss a beat.

They single handily scored one of the NYSH 2 runs against Shockwave. If I remember right, Amy (I think it was her) got on with a bunt, advanced to second on a poorly thrown ball by "Larry Fitzgerald", another girl moved her over with a sac, another girl kicked her in with a 2 out single. I don't remember if the initial bunt started with 1 out or someone else got out between. Pretty impressive considering they shut down the rest of the team.

Yeah, I have seen them get it done on both sides of the ball plenty of times.

NYSH have a great group off girls. I am biased but I think our girls are the best group in the game. We had 5 runs kicked in by girls in the final4/finals in DC.

I also think that Panik has a great group of girls 1-6. The Situation has very good girls as well.

I would vote for Jess Robertson. SHe's such a solid player. She may not be the fastest- but she's smart and she's sneaky and she always gets the job done- offensively and defensively. She's really good in pressure situations.

I don't notice a lot of players on other teams, but Amy from NYSH is always impressive too. Not sure what she does on offense, but man she's a solid defender.

I think Jess could give half the guys in circuit baserunning advice. She is always taking extra bases; sneaky is a pretty accurate description.

And where is that play when she boxed Trey out? I believe it was in the finals of SFKO last year. Fro, I need some help here, thanks.

I would like to nominate this play as play of the year for Trey. He got at least 8 inches of the ground with that jump.

Amy should pretty much win this until another female either does as well at a primary defensive position (with the solid offense), or just blows up offensively to the point that their position isn't relevant. The flexibility to put another guy in the spot of you choosing is invaluable.

Not sure of her name, but that girl that plays first for Shockwave should get some props, but yeah...Amy.

I second this... She should definitely be in the conversation. I might put her on the same level as AMY.

She is arguably the reason we didn't make the finals in JAX. Pitched to a dude in a sac fly situation since she was up next anyway. Next time we'll probably make her prove it :)
