Coco Jaimes is becoming UCF’s clutch-contact spark in the infield
In the 2026 season, Coco Jaimes has shown real value as a versatile INF with a contact-first bat, highlighted by a .400 start in early February and a huge postseason swing, including a walk-off hit against Jacksonville State and a 3-for-4, 2-RBI game vs Iowa State. She isn’t just a stat line; she’s the kind of player who can stabilize an infield, deliver in pressure spots, and keep an offense moving. Add in her former captain profile and Gold Glove pedigree from high school, and she looks like a high-intensity fit for teams that love reliable defense and timely hitting.
