Contact-speed outfielder giving George Mason a spark in 2026
In the 2026 season, Madeline Staats has been a versatile bat-and-glove contributor for George Mason, with game logs showing she’s capable of creating runs, moving around the outfield, and staying involved in pressure spots. Her background screams consistency: as a 2025 senior in high school she hit .426 with a .533 OBP and 1.222 OPS, suggesting a hitter who controls the zone and finds ways on base. She looks like a high-energy, low-maintenance fit for programs needing speed, defensive flexibility, and a competitive leadoff-style presence.
