Mercyhurst Freshman Avarie Mays Finding Her Footing at the Plate
The 5'8" right-handed infielder from St. Vincent-St. Mary High School (Ohio) is in her first season at Mercyhurst, working through the adjustment to college-level competition. Through the 2026 season, Mays has posted a .227 average with 4 home runs and 5 RBIs as a versatile defender capable of playing both first base and third base. As a freshman still developing her stroke, she represents upside potential for a program seeking depth at the corner infield positions. Her dual-position flexibility and power potential (evidenced by her 4 HRs) suggest she could become a valuable contributor as she gains experience and confidence at the plate.
