Taylor Ames-Alexander brings MEAC Player of the Year bat to Howard’s infield
Ames-Alexander is a high-impact, run-producing infielder whose 2025 breakout at South Carolina State included a league-best .421 average, 51 hits, 36 RBIs, and 17 extra-base hits, earning MEAC Player of the Year honors. She also showed steady defensive value with a .940 fielding percentage and has carried that form into Howard’s 2026 lineup, where she continues to drive offense in key spots. Her value goes beyond the box score: she’s a proven conference ace at the plate, plays with consistency, and fits best with a team that wants a middle-of-the-order bat who can set the tone immediately.
