Audri Bates is Charleston’s clutch spark in center field
In the 2026 season, Audri Bates emerged as a timely middle-order threat and impact runner for Charleston, highlighted by a 3-for-3, three-RBI performance in the CAA championship game and a home run against Georgia Tech in February. She brings speed, bat-to-ball consistency, and pressure-game poise, with recurring signs of run creation through hits, RBI, stolen bases, and smart baserunning. The fit? A coach-friendly outfielder who can change a game with one swing or one aggressive turn on the bases.
