North Alabama’s steady middle-infield glue guy with clutch juice
Leighton Jenkins is a durable, everyday infielder for North Alabama who started all 55 games in the 2025 season and hit .206 with 26 RBI, while ranking 7th in the ASUN with 121 assists. In the 2024 season, he hit .226 and showed extra-base pop with 10 doubles and 2 home runs, and in 2025 he added value with 5 stolen bases and a knack for timely plays, including a walk-off double and multiple sac-bunt moments. He’s the kind of gritty, right-handed grinder who stabilizes the middle infield and brings competitive, do-the-little-things energy.
