Don't know, but I would start with Ellen and keep Ivy as the closer today.

I'm fairly certain she would get the start if there's a game 3. She doesn't have as much movement on her pitches as Ellen, so she needs to be able to hit the corners and have an ump with a reasonable strike zone. That combination, along with her speed, gives her a big advantage because she doesn't have to throw the ball across the plate where some of those GA hitters could do some damage.

The fastpitch motion, compared to overhand baseball, doesn't put nearly as much stress on the arm. Many of these ladies have probably pitched multiple times in a day when they were playing tournaments.

I live in Georgia now but grew up in TN and graduated from UT. Always a VOLS fan first.
