Cassidy Relay is the spark plug atop UNC Wilmington’s lineup
In the 2026 season, Relay has been one of the CAA’s most dangerous table-setters for UNCW, leading the league with a .490 average in late March, finishing the regular season at .448, and pairing that bat speed with 31 steals and 6 runs in a sweep of Charleston. Her profile is simple but nasty: elite contact, serious baserunning pressure, and enough consistency to earn First Team All-CAA honors. At 5-foot-2, she plays like she’s got a jet engine in her cleats—exactly the kind of high-motor leadoff threat that can tilt a roster fast.
