Summit League first-team arm who can miss bats and log innings
In the 2026 season, Reece Wagner emerged as a reliable rotation piece for Northern Colorado, going 5-3 with a 5.80 ERA, 69 strikeouts in 78.2 innings, and an opposing batting average of .247. He was named First Team All-Summit League, which is a strong signal that coaches viewed him as one of the conference’s top right-handers. The stat line says strike-thrower; the context says competitor: he handled a heavy workload, showed enough swing-and-miss to matter, and has the family-baseball pedigree and steady role fit teams love in a starting RHP.
