Edwin Betances brings Lehigh a contact-first, multi-hit table setter
In the 2026 season, Edwin Betances has shown real everyday value for Lehigh as a left-handed bat who can play multiple infield spots and keep the offense moving. He entered the year as a junior and has already delivered timely production in conference and nonconference play, including run-driven games at Navy, Army, and Coppin State. The appeal is the blend: steady contact, on-base ability, and enough versatility to help any lineup stay flexible. Not flashy—just the kind of grinder coaches trust when they want reliable at-bats and a player who stays ready.
