Peyton Woods is turning into a Southland star for SE Louisiana
In the 2026 season, Peyton Woods hit .358 with 6 home runs and 27 RBIs while leading the Southland Conference in batting average and on-base percentage (.465), then added All-Louisiana and Southland Hitter of the Year honors to the résumé. He looks like a steady, high-contact bat with sneaky pop and enough versatility to handle infield or outfield work, which gives a roster real flexibility. The appeal is simple: he produced at a championship level, earned top-conference recognition, and brings the kind of reliable, competitive profile coaches love in the middle of a lineup.
