Ireland Buss brings speed, versatility, and Cyclone-tested grit to Iowa State
Ireland Buss is a senior outfielder for Iowa State in the 2026 season who has built her value around speed, athleticism, and team-first impact rather than headline-grabbing volume. Iowa State’s 2026 roster lists her as a 5-foot-8 outfielder, and the program has consistently used her as a pinch runner, with her freshman and sophomore seasons marked by nine runs scored in each year and multiple stolen-base contributions. The Cyclones originally highlighted her as a multi-sport athlete with speed and power, which makes her a useful fit for teams wanting energy, versatility, and reliable game-changing pace.
