Jayla Manning brings left-handed speed and contact value to Bellarmine’s outfield
As a freshman outfielder for Bellarmine in 2026, Jayla Manning has already shown she can contribute in clutch, low-margin games, including collecting hits and runs in conference play; her left-handed bat and strong on-base production from her high-school resume suggest a contact-oriented, table-setting profile rather than a pure power hitter.[5][3][4] Her fit is strongest for teams that value athletic outfield defense, pressure on the bases, and reliable bat-to-ball skills, with upside if she continues translating her high school production to the college level.[4][5]
