We are currently testing a Portolite prototype designed specifically for teams who practice on gym floors and sport courts โ€” and itโ€™s a game changer.

This extended-length mat is engineered to stick directly to hardwood without sliding, shifting, or damaging the floor. That means:

โœ”๏ธ No bulky platforms
โœ”๏ธ No slipping on sport court
โœ”๏ธ No tearing up school gym floors
โœ”๏ธ A consistent, stable throwing surface anywhere

At Catalyst, we are always looking for ways to bridge performance + practicality โ€” and working alongside Portolite in the testing phase allows us to be part of the innovation process, not just consumers of it.

The Portolite Pitching Lab isnโ€™t just about data and development โ€” itโ€™s about solving real problems for real teams. Most softball programs do not have access to full turf facilities. They are in gyms, on hardwood, on sport court. This prototype was built with THEM in mind!

Proud to partner with companies that continue to push the game forward like . ๐Ÿš€

Innovation, testing, feedback, and refinement โžก๏ธ that is how the next level gets built! If you are interested in demo-ing the hardwood floor pitching mat, contact us at [email protected]! S/O to .meyer19 (University of St. Thomas commit) for helping us test this equipment ๐Ÿค

Velocity isnโ€™t built on one good pitch, it is built on consistency. These athletes didnโ€™t just chase a PRโ€ฆ they raised their average velocity. ๐Ÿ“ˆ

Anyone can spike one big number, development is about moving the baseline! At Catalyst, we track everything with Rapsodo to ensure gains are real, measurable, and sustainable โ€” not guesswork.

When your average goes up 2โ€“6+ mph?
That changes:
โœ”๏ธ Reaction time for hitters
โœ”๏ธ Swing decisions
โœ”๏ธ Weak contact rate
โœ”๏ธ College projection

This is what long-term, data-driven pitching development looks like. Huge shout out to Allana Benoit ( 2028) for topping both our average and max velocity gains leaderboard from our first re-test!

With snow piling up and roads getting slick, we are shutting down the facility for the rest of the night. No practices/trainings/ETS.

Stay safe out there & Daisy looks forward to seeing everyone tomorrow! ๐Ÿพ๐ŸŒจ๏ธ

When development is intentional, data-backed, and consistent โžก๏ธ results follow! Huge shoutout to these athletes for trusting the process and putting in the work. +6.2, +4.6, +4.4โ€ฆ after a first re-test from November to now is CRAZY ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿคฏ

From 10U to 18U, the standard keeps climbing!

71.0 MPH at 16/18U.
58.5 MPH at 14U.
54.7 MPH at 12U/10U.

These numbers are not accidental! They are built through strength, mechanics, intent, and measurable feedback. At Catalyst, every bullpen has purpose, every athlete has a plan, and every rep is tracked.

Our have been a part of countless PR celly's and velocity jumps! They are the best surface to train on, day in and day out.

Every number you see here has been tracked and verified by Rapsodo โ€” the most accurate, high-tech data system in the game. There is no guessing and no inflated numbers, just objective feedback and athletes who put in the work!

Stay tuned for more leaderboards coming tomorrow! ๐Ÿฅณ

Today we are celebrating every girl and woman in our Catalyst organization! Each of you has built our program into what it is today, and we could not be more grateful for every single one of you.

We are so proud to be a women-led program with the best staff, families, and athletes. Thank you all for continuously raising the bar and creating an incredible environment in our Catalyst softball facility that is competitive, fun, and safe - one that makes all of us proud (and grateful) to be a part of it.

One of our fav leaderboards! Exit velo isn't just about chasing the biggest number on the board. While 70+ & 80+ MPH swings are impressive, what is just as impressive (and more often more meaningful) is how much our athletes improve!

These percentage increases do not happen by accident. They are a result of:

Proof of our system working and developing hitters who do not just peak, but consistently progress throughout the process! ๐Ÿ“ˆ
