Kate Penberthy is Boise State’s clutch-contact force in the infield
In the 2026 season, Kate Penberthy has been one of Boise State’s most dangerous bats, hitting .361 with 56 hits, 15 doubles, 13 home runs and 36 RBI, while also posting a .446 on-base percentage and a .710 slugging mark[1]. She was especially hot in Mountain West play, batting .438 and finishing with 12 straight conference games with hits, including eight multi-hit outings[4]. Her value goes beyond the box score: she’s a middle-order run-producer who can change a game with one swing, which is exactly the kind of competitive, high-impact infielder contenders want[4][5].
