Shannon Martin keeps Grambling’s infield engine humming
In the 2026 season, Shannon Martin has been a steady, senior presence for Grambling at second base, starting every game early in the year and delivering both contact hitting and on-base value. He was hitting .286 in midseason coverage, and his 2025 season showed the profile teams love: .287 with 12 doubles, 60 runs, 29 RBI, and 45 walks in 54 games. The differentiator is his complete game—he can contribute at the plate, create traffic on the bases, and bring veteran reliability up the middle.
