Landon Akers is Bellarmine’s steady infield spark plug with a knack for big swings
In the 2026 season, Bellarmine infielder Landon Akers emerged as one of the Knights’ most reliable bats, posting a .357 average with 7 home runs and 40 RBI while opening the year as a preseason All-ASUN selection. He also put together a 27-game hit streak and flashed impact versatility with doubles, triples, and timely extra-base pop. The appeal here is twofold: he produces consistently and has the competitive edge coaches love in the middle of a lineup. If your team wants a polished, high-contact infielder who can also change a game with one swing, Akers is very much worth the look.
