Cooper Clapp is becoming MTSU’s clutch-leverage infield bat
In 2026, Cooper Clapp has emerged as Middle Tennessee’s everyday infield catalyst, batting .320 with a .975 OPS and team-leading home run production, including 12 homers and multiple late-game RBI moments that helped the Blue Raiders win tight games.[2][10][11] The former hand-injury setback is worth noting, but his current profile says impact: left-handed bat, middle-infield versatility, and a knack for big swings in pressure spots, which makes him a strong fit for teams that value contact-to-power upside and competitive edge.[5][7][8]
