Avery Moore has become Purdue’s steady, damage-adding bat in the outfield
In the 2026 season, Avery Moore has been one of Purdue’s most reliable hitters, earning All-Big Ten third-team honors after batting .338 overall and a sizzling .418 in conference play with a 1.270 OPS in league games. He brings a legit contact-and-impact blend, plus enough pop to change a game — including multiple extra-base-hits performances and a big 4-for-4 day with two homers in the Indiana series. The nice fit factor: he’s a senior leader, plays with toughness, and is praised as part of Purdue’s gritty core.
