Brityn Buchanan brings veteran grit, defensive value, and timely pop for Wagner
In the 2026 season, Buchanan was named a captain, started 30 games across 32 appearances, and gave Wagner stability behind the plate and in the lineup. Her calling card is versatility and toughness: she caught five runners stealing, posted 19 assists, and delivered clutch moments like a home run against LIU on April 7, helping the Seahawks reach their first NEC title and NCAA Tournament. She is the kind of compact, team-first catcher/utility piece coaches love for leadership, defensive awareness, and competitiveness.
