Brie Howard is an ASUN power bat with record-setting pop and a real game-changing ceiling
In the 2026 season, Brie Howard turned into Austin Peay’s offensive engine, breaking the program’s single-season records for home runs (20) and RBI (65) while hitting .362 and leading the Govs in runs, extra-base hits, and slugging percentage. The differentiator is easy to spot: elite power, clutch production, and the kind of carry-the-lineup profile that earned her ASUN preseason honors and national recognition. She’s also shown consistency and durability, starting all 54 games in 2026. If a team wants a middle-order threat with proven big-moment juice, Howard is absolutely worth the hype.
