Maya Mesa is Seattle U’s local lefty with upside in the circle
In the 2026 season, Maya Mesa has flashed real starter potential for Seattle U, highlighted by a complete game with five strikeouts and a 4.1-inning shutout relief stretch that showed she can settle games down when the Redhawks need composure most. The strongest differentiator is her two-way pedigree and competitiveness: Seattle U called her a strong two-way player who can impact both the circle and the batter’s box, and her high school résumé included 235 strikeouts and a 2.40 ERA in 2024. She looks like a good fit for teams valuing grit, growth, and a left-handed arm with room to keep climbing.
