Bryce Elias brings veteran contact bat and steady on-base upside to Iona
In the 2026 season, Bryce Elias has been a useful left-field bat for Iona, batting .273 with a .546 slugging percentage in limited action and delivering a two-RBI single in the Gaels’ 3-1 win over FDU, while also going 2-for-4 on Senior Day against Manhattan.[6][2][3] His value is bigger than the box score: prior to Iona he posted a .430 average with 5 homers, a 1.362 OPS, and led Ventura College in OPS, triples, and stolen bases, signaling a hitter with bat-to-ball skill, extra-base pop, and sneaky athleticism.[1]
