Former San Jacinto College standout pitcher Kelsey (McClain) Walters returns to the San Jac dugout for her 11th year as assistant coach.
During her two years as a San Jac student-athlete, Walters re-wrote the softball record books. Her name appears in each of the pitching records, where she ranks second for most wins in a season (31) and is the record holder for innings pitched (263.33) and batting average against (0.107). She is fourth in strikeouts, tied for second in shutouts, and tied for sixth in ERA.
After graduating from San Jac, Walters went on to a stellar career at McNeese State University. In two years, she guided the Cowboys to a 69-56 record. She played in 37 games, making 20 starts. She was 4-5 as a starting pitcher with a 3.61 ERA.
Walters holds a master’s degree in kinesiology and coaching from Texas Woman’s University. Married since 2014, she and her husband welcomed a daughter in 2015 and a son in 2018.
