| Sami Reynolds became the fastest Husky to 50 career RBI since Taylor Van Zee in 2015 last weekend, doing so in 61 games. Reynolds has 14 career multi-RBI games, including three this season. Since beginning her career with 11 RBI in her first 25 games, Reynolds has 39 RBI in 42 games, averaging .928 RBI per game. Only three Huskies in school history have averaged more RBI per game: Morganne Flores (.982), Kristen Rivera (.955), and Jaime Clark (.931).

COMMITTEE APPROACH | |
| Washington has already had four different pitchers throw over 12 innings. That has only happened three other times in Washington history: 2011, 2015, and 2016. 2015 is the only season in which four pitchers have thrown at least 20 innings: currently, the Huskies are on pace to reach that mark before the end of February. Washington had only had four different pitchers start a game in a single season four times before: 2011, 2015, 2016, and 2018. | ||
