Laney Deane is UNC Greensboro’s power bat with run-producing pop
In the 2026 season, Laney Deane emerged as a middle-order force for UNC Greensboro, hitting .297 with a .594 slugging percentage, six home runs, 23 RBI and 19 hits in 64 at-bats, with multiple three-RBI games and a game-changing three-run homer in tournament play. She brings legitimate right-handed power, can punish mistakes fast, and has shown she can drive in runs in bunches — the kind of infielder who can tilt a lineup if you need clutch thump more than flash.
