Emily Valentine brings clutch speed-and-contact pop to Stony Brook's outfield
In the 2026 season, Emily Valentine has already shown she can tilt a game late, delivering a ninth-inning walk-off single in Stony Brook’s 3-2 win over Fordham. A former Bristol Eastern standout, she arrived with a proven all-around profile—.448 batting average, .546 on-base percentage, 39 extra-base hits, 82 RBIs, 119 runs and 83 stolen bases in high school—so the appeal is obvious: speed, bat-to-ball skill, pressure-situation composure and value in the outfield. If you want a sparkplug who can create chaos on the bases and come through in tight spots, she’s the kind of fit coaches love.
