Danielle Stewart is Northern Illinois’ two-way tone-setter and one of the MAC’s most reliable bats
Stewart is a high-impact P/UTL who brings rare two-way value, but her biggest separator is her bat: in 2026 she led Northern Illinois with a .451 average, 60 hits, 44 RBIs, and a .522 on-base percentage while starting all 43 games, and she earned second-team NFCA All-Region honors for the fourth straight season. She profiles as a tough, dependable lineup anchor with consistent extra-base production and clear competitive durability—exactly the kind of player a team can build around.
