360?

Her windup consisted of a backswing rotation of more then 360 degrees

Do you mean she went backwards all the way over the top and back to the front & then reversed? Wow! I have never seen this. I have seen a backswing that went nearly vertical before the forward windmill. How did the rest of her delivery look? If she truly went 360, then she probably was going more than 2 revolutions in the forward direction, assuming a normal follow-through once she released the ball.

That would be illegal.

If not, then she was probably legal, since there was no "stop or reversal of the forward motion," which is what the rule is making illegal. It allows a backswing.
