2023:  Rogers earned Varsity Gems SAC Pitcher of the Week laurels after dishing out a no-hitter in the Eagles' weekend action at the Charger Chillout.  The sophomore was 2-0 on the weekend through 9.2 innings.  She only allowed three hits and struck out 14.  Through the weekend, opposing batters hit just .095 off of her. She started out by logging a win over Maryville (Mo.).  Against the Saints she hurled 4.2 innings of three-hit shutout ball.  She struck out five but did walk four.  However, it was against Shorter where Rogers was truly sublime.  In Carson-Newman's 13-0, five-inning, run-rule win over the Hawks, Rogers delivered the program's first no-hitter since Allison Rager did so to Anderson in the opening round of the NCAA Southeast Regional in 2019.  The sophomore pitcher recorded nine strikeouts in five innings of work. Rogers recorded the first five outs of game two via strikeouts before the Hawks actually put a ball into play.  Only one ball was hit beyond the infield. Rogers was also Carson-Newman's last SAC Pitcher of the Week honoree, garnering the award on March 22, 2022.  Against Mars Hill (Feb. 22), Rogers took over for a 5-0 complete-game, one-hit shutout in the night cap.  The 15 strikeouts are the second most for a single-game in school history, tied with Alli Webster's 15-strikeout performance in 2016 at Tusculum.  For the season, Rogers was 9-7 with a 4.36 ERA. She appeared in 28 games with 21 starts in the circle.  She went the distance seven times and was a part of four shutouts.  Rogers fanned 109 batters in 98.0 innings of work and allowed just 97 hits, however, she also walked 80 batters and hit another 11.  Opponents hit .261 off her.  She had a pair of double-digit strikeout efforts - the aforementioned game at Mars Hill and a 10-K day in game one of a doubleheader with Tusculum (Apr. 11). 

HONORS: 

• SAC Player of the Week (2/14)

2022: Rogers started the season as a pitcher before settling into the outfield the back half of the season.  She hit .247 for the year with 44 appearances and 41 starts.  Of Rogers 22 hits, 15 were for extra bases - eight doubles, a triple and six home runs.  She drove in 20 runs.  In the circle, Rogers was 9-6 with a 4.31 ERA.  While prone to walk batters - she had 92 free passes on the year - opponents just hit .208 off her, the second lowest batting average against for a single season in school history.  Rogers was named SAC Pitcher of the Week on March 22.  Rogers is Carson-Newman's first Pitcher of the Week honoree this season, and the program's first since Allison Rager was recognized on April 8, 2019 after firing a no-hitter against Newberry. Rogers is the first freshman pitcher to receive the award since Lacie Rinus was recognized three times during her freshman year in 2017. The Graysville, Tenn.-native went 2-0 on the week with a 7-1 win over Limestone and a 12-0, five-inning, complete-game shutout of Catawba, her second complete-game shutout of the season. The freshman only surrendered four hits on the week while striking out 15. She touted a 0.58 ERA and opponents hit a paltry .093 off her last week. In the two games, Limestone and Catawba were a combined 0-for-22 with runners on base against Rogers. The run the Saints scored was the result of a wild pitch.
