Jake Lenahan has become Holy Cross’s high-leverage swing man — and now a starter with real bite
In the 2026 season, Lenahan evolved from a bullpen weapon into a starter, and that transition has been legit: he led Holy Cross in appearances and saves earlier in the year, then delivered a 7.1-inning, 10-strikeout career day and a 1.86 ERA over his last three starts entering the Patriot League title series. He pairs strike-throwing with swing-and-miss stuff, and his 2026 numbers show impact both in volume and leverage. Add a 4.00 GPA and academic recognition, and you get a tough, polished competitor who should fit a program looking for a dependable, high-IQ arm with upside.
