Reply to "The average pitching speed at age X is this!"

I find John's numbers fairly close.  And I think when he says range he is speaking more about the range of average.  My experience gunning pitchers along the way is 60 is really good at 11, 65 at 12, 70 at 13.  Then l Ike leftside suggested it gets a little murky.  Those who have fully matured - and there are some - at age 14 might throw 85.  Those that haven't even started may be stuck at 65 to 70.  Once you hit those maturation years its so hard to predict.  But I think in general if you want to be a recruit you need to be 80mph after freshman year and 85 after sophomore year.  But ultimately if you can be upper 80's by senior year it really doesn't matter how you get there.
