Libby Peoples is Yale’s high-impact table-setter with a bat that can change games
In the 2026 season, Libby Peoples emerged as one of Yale’s most dangerous hitters, leading the team in batting average (.381), OPS (1.088), triples (6), and total bases (69) while posting a .503 on-base percentage, the best by a Yale hitter since 2013. She also returned from a long injury layoff and immediately looked like a tone-setter, earning Ivy League Player of the Week honors after batting .615 in her opening weekend back. If your team values contact, gap power, speed, and a player who brings serious competitive juice, she’s a very strong fit.
