Coen Niclai brings power, patience, and clutch pop behind the plate for ASU
In the 2026 season, Arizona State catcher Coen Niclai emerged as a real impact bat, hitting .279 with 5 home runs, 20 RBIs, a .425 on-base percentage, and 7 caught stealings thrown out in 26 attempts[6]. He’s a physical 6-foot-2, right-handed catcher who has shown middle-of-the-order juice, a disciplined approach, and a knack for rising in big moments — including a walk-off single and a grand slam against GCU[7][8]. If you want a catcher who can help both offensively and defensively while bringing competitive edge, he’s a strong fit.
