Preston Zumwalt is a bat-first Toledo freshman with sneaky pop and polished contact skills
In the 2026 season, Preston Zumwalt has already flashed impact for Toledo, hitting .233 with 14 hits, 16 RBIs, a 1.000 fielding percentage, and a breakout game with a 3-for-4 line, 3 runs, 3 RBIs, and his first homer — an inside-the-park job. He also delivered a season-high five RBIs in a win over Butler, which says a lot about his upside in clutch spots. At 6-foot, 190 pounds, he brings a sturdy, right-handed infielder profile with versatility and offensive juice; the early evidence suggests a player who can help with run production and steady defense.
