Matt Graziose is CCSU’s middle-order thumper with a real 2026 breakout
In the 2026 season, Matt Graziose has emerged as a key bat for Central Connecticut, showing gap-to-power production with a .284 average, .385 on-base percentage, .523 slugging percentage, 7 home runs, and 25 RBI. He also earned NEC Player of the Week honors in May 2026, which signals real week-to-week impact, not just empty stats. At 6-foot-4 and right-handed, he brings a big, physical infield profile with run-producing upside and enough discipline to draw walks. If you want a corner-infield bat who can change a game with one swing, he’s a fit.
