Marti Henkel gives App State a steady bat, a sure glove, and clutch-game spark
In the 2025 season, Marti Henkel emerged as a dependable two-way presence for App State, hitting .253 with six doubles and her first career home run, a walk-off grand slam against Marshall, while also posting a .994 fielding percentage and throwing out six runners behind the plate. In 2026, she remained a regular catcher in the lineup, and her profile suggests a high-IQ, high-effort player who adds toughness, game management, and late-inning poise more than flash.
