Nunley wins pitchers' duel to top UK's all-time wins list

Kelsey Nunley had waited for three weeks to break the record, so a couple extra innings were no issue.

On April 1, Nunley tied Chanda Bell atop the all-time wins list in Kentucky softball history. She made seven starts and appeared three more times looking for win No. 70, but it never came.

Wednesday it finally did.

"Kelsey and I haven't really talked about it, but I'm sure it's probably a big monkey off her back," UK head coach Rachel Lawson said.

Nunley didn't have the luxury of pitching like she had anything but her jersey on her back against Western Kentucky.
