Peyton Holland is UT Arlington’s two-way spark plug at shortstop
In the 2026 season, Peyton Holland gave UT Arlington a rare blend of power, reliability, and middle-infield impact: she hit .315 with 14 home runs, 44 RBI, and a 1.173 OPS, while also earning WAC Co-Defensive Player of the Year honors after logging a .968 fielding percentage and 107 assists in a full 45-game season. She’s the kind of player who changes games with both the bat and glove, and her record-tying power surge plus steady defensive range make her a fit for any team wanting an intense, high-upside shortstop.
