Lakaiya-Braessia Kahahawai-Kekona is Utah Tech’s steady-contact spark with All-WAC upside
In the 2026 season, Lakaiya-Braessia Kahahawai-Kekona has been one of Utah Tech’s most reliable bats, finishing fifth in the WAC with a .392 average, adding 56 hits, 14 steals, and 15 multi-hit games while also earning First Team All-WAC, NFCA Third Team All-Mountain Region, and WAC All-Defensive Team honors[1]. She brings a tough, high-motor profile: consistent line-drive contact, speed on the bases, and defensive value, plus the kind of academic polish and competitive steadiness coaches love in a middle-of-the-diamond player[1].
