Kendall Simmers is NC State’s on-base machine with pop
In the 2026 season, Kendall Simmers has been one of NC State’s most productive infield bats, hitting .342 with a 1.034 OPS, 15 extra-base hits, 50 RBI, 32 walks, and six steals while starting all 53 games at second base. She pairs legit power with patience, which is a nasty combo for pitchers and a strong fit for a lineup that needs run production. What makes her especially attractive: she’s durable, reliable, and already a proven middle-order spark who can change a game with one swing.
