Susanna Pate is Cornell’s energetic utility spark, turning contact, speed and versatility into value
In the 2026 season, Cornell’s Susanna Pate has been a reliable all-around piece: she played in 35 games with 25 starts, hit .294 with 20 hits, 17 runs, four doubles, one homer and seven RBI, while adding 11 walks, three steals and a .393 on-base percentage[3]. Her differentiators are the glue-player traits coaches love—she can move around the field, gets on base, creates pressure with speed, and has already shown a breakout ceiling with a 2-for-2, four-run, three-RBI game against Morgan State[3].
