Jessica DeLeon is a middle-order bat and elite defensive catcher for New Mexico
In the 2025 season, DeLeon emerged as one of New Mexico’s most reliable impact players, leading the Lobos with 33 RBI while batting .338 with a .414 on-base percentage and a .471 slugging mark, and she also handled the heavy defensive workload at catcher with a .991 fielding percentage in 2026. She stands out for run production, clutch contact, and positional value behind the plate—plus she’s already shown big-game pop, multi-hit upside, and freshman-year consistency. For a team, that combination makes her a strong fit as a competitive, high-motor catcher who can both defend and drive in runs.[1][2]
