Carah Sumpter brings two-way punch to Monmouth’s rise
In the 2026 season, Carah Sumpter emerged as a versatile rookie for Monmouth, hitting .309 with 4 home runs, 15 RBIs, and a .600 slugging percentage while also posting a team-best 3.84 ERA and 64 strikeouts over 96.2 innings. She earned consecutive CAA Rookie of the Week honors in April and showed real toughness in complete-game outings, plus enough bat-to-ball pop to punish teams as a lineup wildcard. If your team wants a competitive right-hander who can also swing it, she’s exactly the kind of player who changes a game in more than one way.
