Ka'Liyah Gipson is Jackson State’s speed-and-contact spark plug
In the 2026 season, Ka'Liyah Gipson emerged as one of Jackson State’s most disruptive table-setters, earning All-SWAC Second Team honors after hitting .425 with 48 hits, 33 runs, 12 RBIs, and 36 stolen bases in 38 attempts; she also ranked 5th nationally in stolen bases and 19th in stolen-base percentage (.895%). She’s the kind of leadoff threat who changes games without needing to leave the yard: high-average contact, aggressive baserunning, and steady outfield defense (.964 fielding percentage) make her a fit for teams that value tempo, pressure, and relentless offensive chaos.
