Laila Clark is a high-energy, middle-of-the-order spark for Southern
In the 2026 season, Laila Clark has been one of Southern’s most productive bats, hitting .442 with 9 home runs, 59 RBIs, 72 hits, and 22 stolen bases while appearing in 53 games[7]. She also earned multiple SWAC weekly honors in 2026, including a conference Newcomer of the Week nod after a .625 series with two homers and 12 total bases[3], and Southern players say her biggest separator is energy—when Clark’s motor is on, the Jaguars are tough to beat[14].
