Brittany Fawne Mayweather (née Rogers; born October 18, 1986) was a four-time All-American outfielder for the Alabama Crimson Tide softball team.[1] Rogers is considered one of the best outfielders in NCAA softball history. Rogers became only the second player in Alabama history to hit over .400 in three seasons.[2] She was the fourth player in Southeastern Conference history and the second at Alabama to tally over 300 hits, 200 runs and 100 stolen bases. Rogers holds the Alabama record for stolen bases with 198 and ranks second all-time with a .417 career batting average, 343 hits and 256 runs.[2]

After graduating from Alabama, Rogers turned down offers to play pro softball in order to be a fourth grade teacher.[3]
