Sammy Schmidt is Omaha’s high-contact, extra-base threat in the outfield
In the 2026 season, Sammy Schmidt emerged as a table-setter with pop, leading Omaha in batting average at .417 in mid-March and finishing with a .356 average, 1.118 OPS, eight extra-base hits, three triples, and 17 RBI while earning First Team All-Summit League honors.[1][2][5][9] The big differentiator: she pairs legit speed and gap power with a proven competitive edge—Omaha has credited her as an outstanding outfielder and one of the premier hitters in her area, and she was named Summit League Peak Performer after a 6-for-10 weekend with nine RBI and two homers.[7][10]
