JMU’s gritty senior catcher bringing on-base pop and captain energy
In the 2026 season, James Madison catcher Jack Cannizzaro has been a steady senior presence, slashing .222/.386/.426 across 25 games with 23 starts and delivering three home runs, 15 RBI, six multi-RBI games, and his first career homer on March 13 against Georgia Southern. He’s not just a bat-and-mitt guy; his walk rate and strong on-base profile show patience, while reports and team bios point to leadership, game-management savvy, and a captain’s temperament. For a team needing a tough, communicative backstop with some sneaky offensive juice, he’s a solid fit.
