Malachi Costello is Iona’s power-left bat with a hot streak and lineup-driving upside
In the 2026 season, Malachi Costello emerged as one of Iona’s most dangerous run producers, leading the team at points in the year and flashing middle-of-the-order pop with multiple big home runs, including a three-run blast and a two-homer, five-RBI game. He combines gap-to-gap damage with legitimate pull power, and his preseason pedigree was strong too: he hit over .400 in high school and earned multiple all-league honors. He looks like a fit for teams needing an energetic, RBI-capable corner outfielder who can change a game fast.
