Walter Urbon is USC’s freshman spark plug with real postseason juice
In the 2026 season, Walter Urbon hit .365 with a .568 slugging percentage, 3 home runs, and 17 RBIs for USC, then flipped the switch in the NCAA Tournament with a 5-for-5, 5-RBI explosion that included a grand slam against Lamar. He’s a right-handed outfielder with a reputation for showing up big in pressure spots, and the late-season surge suggests more impact bat than the limited regular-season role hinted at. If you want a young, energetic hitter with pop, momentum, and postseason confidence, he’s absolutely worth a look.
