Emily Heath is Sacred Heart’s innings-eating lefty with proven big-game endurance
In the 2026 season, Emily Heath gave Sacred Heart a reliable, workload-heavy presence in the circle: 30 appearances, 21 starts, 146.1 innings, 7 wins, 62 strikeouts and a 4.88 ERA, with three complete-game wins. Her calling card is toughness—she’s been trusted to go deep, including a 6.0-inning win in the MAAC championship, and earlier career notes praised her upside, work ethic and academic discipline. The fit is clear for teams wanting a durable, competitive pitcher who can soak up innings and keep the staff steady, even when the stuff isn’t always overpowering.
