Nash Horton brings versatile bat-to-ball pop and all-out energy to Pepperdine’s lineup
Nash Horton, a Pepperdine C/OF, has shown early promise with a 2026 line of .241/.309/.310 in 35 games and 23 starts, adding 2 triples, 9 RBI, and a solid contact profile for a freshman-turned-sophomore piece. The bigger appeal is the flexibility: he can catch or handle the outfield, and his background suggests a tough, high-character competitor who was a two-time first-team all-state pick in high school. He looks like a fit for a program that values athletic versatility, energy, and upside more than gaudy present-day power.
