Ottavino holds the top two single-season strikeout totals in 2006 (120) and 2005 (106), respectively. He also owns the fourth-highest single-season strikeouts per inning average in program history (11.53 in 2006).
In 2005, Ottavino was named the America East Pitcher of the Year after going 8-4 with a 3.09 earned run average and 106 strikeouts in 96 innings pitched. He followed that up with an All-CAA First Team honor and three CAA Pitcher of the Week accolades in 2006.
