Rutgers-Camden Athletics

During her two stellar seasons with the Scarlet Raptors, Brittany Scott has placed her name among the all-time greats in the program’s softball history, while earning a pair of all-conference and team Most Valuable Player honors. Now, as Scott enters her final collegiate season, she continues climbing the Rutgers-Camden charts in numerous categories while taking aim at several all-time program records.
 
A transfer who spent her first collegiate season at the University of New Haven (Connecticut), the ace right-hander owns a 32-16 record and a 2.14 ERA at Rutgers-Camden. Offensively, she has hit .303 with 44 RBIs for her Raptor career.
 
Scott enters the season ranking second on the program’s all-time charts for complete games (55), third for innings pitched (398-2/3), pitching starts (58) and batters faced (1,760), tied for third in saves (3), fourth for pitching appearances (64), at bats (1,561) and strikeouts (261), fifth in ERA (2.14, for all pitchers with over 100 innings pitched) and wins (32), tied for fifth in shutouts (7) and eighth in opponent batting average (.251).
 
With 717 more at bats, a total she has reached during both of her seasons at Rutgers-Camden, she would tie the program mark held by current Head Coach Michelle Schlichtig. With 30-2/3 more innings, she’ll tie Natalie Powell in second place. She needs three more saves to tie Schlichtig’s program record, 24 more strikeouts to tie Becky Johnson for third place and three more shutouts to tie Powell for fourth on the program list. Scott’s next win will tie Johnson for fourth place, and with eight more wins she’ll tie Sarah O’Malley at second on the all-time Rutgers-Camden victory list.
 
Offensively, Scott currently ranks seventh among the all-time Rutgers-Camden leaders (200 of more career at bats) for on-base percentage (.390), 12th for slugging percentage (.441) and is tied for 13th in home runs (6). Her 110 assists rank 19th all-time.
 
Combined with her one season at New Haven, Scott owns 81 hits and 40 wins in her collegiate career.
