Mike Norton - Broken Arrow High School, Hands Down. Explains the way to throw the pitches to the girls in a way that makes it easy for them to understand. Look at their track record, cant argue with that.

Mike Norton is definately one of the best.... but i will say that Randall king and others have done a great job building hiotters and defensive players to go along with the pitching that they have,,,,, takes more than a great pitcher to win....  Contact Mike Norton! he is great!

Depends on what you want...  Velocity, Movement, Certain Pitches, Spin, etc

Here are a few I would reccomend: (in NO particular order)
Kerri Newcomb - OKC - Best Riseball instructor in my opinion, also great for other pitches.  She pitched D1 for Tulsa.  Also has many D1 Students and prospects. 
Terri McLure - Owasso - Great Power Pitcher who teaches the proper mechanics that D1 Coaches will look for.  She pitched D1 at Missouri State.  Has many D1 students and prospects. 
Nikki Barrett - Tulsa - grew up in Mission Veijo, CA; pitched for OC Batbusters, Minors Gold and So Cal Athletics; pitched D1 for Florida International.  Led the Nation in D1 Saves.  She is great for "spin", especially Drop, Curve, Screw and Change Up and variations of each. Has many D1 students and prospects. 
Jesse Simmons - Sapaulpa - he's been around a long time and still does lessons.  All his students have great movement and spin the ball well.  Has some D1 students and some great prospects.

Don't Forget Bruce Glore with the Pitchers Circle.  Teaches Accuracy and speed.  Currently has several D1 Prospects.  Great teacher.

Terri McClure!!!  She breaks everything down into easy to master steps.  She was a very successful pitcher herself.  She is at World Baseball Outreach in Tulsa, same building as Perfect Practice.  She fills up fast, so don't wait to long to get in touch.  You won't be dissapointed!

We will be bringing Ernie Parker in again this year in Dec. Watch for the announcement on the dates. If you have looked into it, you will probably know who he is.
