Kendal Manley gives Santa Clara a live two-way arm with pop
Kendal Manley is a 5-foot-10 Santa Clara pitcher who brings legitimate two-way value and a competitive edge: as a high school senior she powered Del Oro to league and section titles while homering in all four sectional playoff games, and at Santa Clara she has already shown she can contribute in the circle and at the plate. In 2025, she logged 15.2 innings with 11 strikeouts and a 3.57 ERA, and her college profile suggests a useful depth arm with upside rather than a pure shutdown ace. She fits best with teams that value toughness, versatility, and projectable growth.[2][4][5]
