Junior | 1999
Kincaid got better with age and developed into one of the most consistent pitchers in the Southeastern Conference last year. An SEC all-tournament team selection and two-time conference pitcher of the week, Kincaid paced the team with a 1.38 ERA and a 22-12 overall record. Kincaid ended the year ranked fifth in wins (10), seventh in innings pitched per game (5.67), fourth in strikeouts per game (5.83) and first in shutouts (5) in SEC-only games. In all games, Kincaid ranked sixth in wins (22), fourth in innings pitched per game (5.55) and fourth in strikeouts per game (5.53). In addition, she ranks in the SEC career records: sixth in victories (48), first in appearances (135) and complete games (95), second in strikeouts (571) and first in innings pitched (807.0). In single-season SEC records, Kincaid is fourth (48, 1997) and ninth (44, 1999) in appearances, first in complete games (44, 1997), tenth in strikeouts (200, 1997) and first in innings pitches (309.2, 1997). Kincaid also has the distinction of pitching the most single-game innings (16.0 against Alabama, 3/21/99) in a 19-inning contest - also a record.

Sophomore | 1998
Seeing most of the mound time for Arkansas in 1998, Kincaid improved her ERA from 2.51 to 1.72 in one season. Kincaid earned SEC Pitcher of the Week honors in early April while posting 253 innings. Kincaid finished the year ranked seventh in the SEC for ERA (1.72), fourth in strikeouts (178), fifth in innings pitched (253.0), fourth in complete games (30) and fifth in appearances (43).

Freshman | 1997
As a freshman, Kincaid set a school and SEC record for innings pitched with numbers that won't soon be erased and she nearly climbed into the NCAA record books as well on her way to conference awards. Arkansas was on the field for 382.1 total innings in 1997 with Kincaid on the mound for 309.2 of them, setting school and SEC records. Kincaid posted a 2.51 ERA while tallying 200 strikeouts in all games and a 1.91 ERA with 101 K's in league action to earn second team all-SEC honors.

HIGH SCHOOL: During club ball, Kincaid's team placed second at nationals her freshman year and fifth her senior year. She posted a 0.20 ERA in her final year. Kincaid was a two-time first team all-league pick as a sophomore and junior, named team MVP and a two-time all-tournament selection as a junior. She holds her school record for strikeouts in a game with 22 and ranks third on the team's career strikeout list with 272, and third for career ERA with a 0.59 mark.

PERSONAL: Born Tameron Rashelle Kincaid on Oct. 18. 1978, she is the daughter of Ellen and Doug Kincaid of Orange, Calif. She has one younger sister, Kindal, who also pitches for a fastpitch softball team. Kincaid is majoring in business.
