Ciara Maple is sparking FAMU’s offense with bat-to-ball pop and top-of-order speed
In the 2026 season, Ciara Maple has been one of Florida A&M’s most dangerous table-setters, showing line-drive contact, extra-base punch, and enough speed to pressure defenses from the top of the order. She’s flashed multi-hit games and run production, including a 3-for-3 outing with a double, triple, two RBIs, and three runs scored, which is exactly the kind of spark plug profile coaches love. At 5-foot-10, she brings an athletic, left-right look in the outfield and fits a team that wants energy, contact, and pressure — not just empty stats.
