Bucknell’s Sonny Taft brings versatility, captain-level edge, and upside at the corner infield
In the 2026 season, Addison “Sonny” Taft appeared in 42 of Bucknell’s 45 games and made 25 starts, showing the kind of utility value coaches love even while working through a tough freshman batting line (.127 with 7 hits, 1 HR, 6 RBI). Bucknell’s roster and game notes point to a player trusted in multiple roles, and her high-school résumé—team MVP, three-year captain, and third-team all-state third baseman—suggests real competitiveness and leadership. She looks like a fit for a team that values grit, flexibility, and long-term development over instant offense.
