Cariana Stout is a steady, run-producing catcher for USC Upstate
In the 2026 season, Cariana Stout has been a reliable everyday catcher for USC Upstate, appearing in 57 games and helping fuel a Spartans offense that’s hitting .334 as a team. Her bat has real punch for the position: she’s slashing .418/.615/.474 with 13 doubles, 7 home runs and 48 RBI, plus 29 runs scored. The broader signal here is upside and dependability—she was an all-metro pick in Texas before arriving in college, and her early-career profile suggests a gritty, contact-plus-power backstop who can anchor the lineup and handle the grind behind the plate.
