PISCATAWAY, N.J. (Feb. 6, 2019) - The 2019 Rutgers softball battery will be made up of an interesting dynamic. In the circle, the Scarlet Knights return 90 percent of last year's innings pitched and add an exciting freshman arm to the mix. Behind the plate, Rutgers' returning catchers only started seven games last spring and welcome three rookies to the squad.

In the finale of a three-part ScarletKnights.com Season Preview, here's a look at the pitchers and catchers.

The Scarlet Knights open the 2019 season on Friday at the Mercer Invitational in Macon, Georgia with games against Mercer, Army and Jacksonville State.
