Teays Valley Grad Sets NCAA Softball Pitching Record

Presented By Hometown-Motors, Inc.

*(UPDATE- Alyssa Rothwell broke the NCAA record with her 33rd save on May 14th)*

A Pickaway County woman who starred in high school softball at Teays Valley High School, has now etched her name into the NCAA Division 1 Softball record books as a pitcher at Ball State University.

Alyssa Rothwell tied the NCAA record for career pitching saves over the weekend, at 32. She tied the record by working three innings in a 17-11 win over Western Michigan University. Rothwell’s 32 career saves ties her with Mississippi State’s Kellie Willkerson (1999-2002) for the NCAA Division 1 career saves record.

Rothwell, who graduated in December 2020, got an extra year of eligibility due to the COVID-19 pandemic. She can possibly break the record in Ball State’s next game on Wednesday.

At Teays Valley, Rothwell played for the Lady Vikings state championship softball team in 2015, hitting the state championship walk-off home run vs Lebanon in 8 innings. She also pitched all 8 innings that day, firing a 1-hit shutout for the pitching victory.
