USI’s innings-eating left-side tone-setter in the circle
In the 2026 season, Southern Indiana sophomore Kylie Witthaus logged team-high workload in the circle, going 4-11 with a 4.67 ERA and 57 strikeouts across 111.0 innings, while also delivering a complete-game shutout in the OVC tournament and earning a save during the regular season[3][2][10]. She’s the kind of pitcher a team wants when it needs toughness and volume: not flashy every outing, but durable, competitive, and capable of stealing a big one when her command is on.
