Wylie Waters brings middle-of-the-order pop and veteran polish to USC Upstate
Wylie Waters has been one of USC Upstate’s most dangerous bats in the 2026 season, with power production that flashed in big moments and steady run creation; he was honored as an Honorable Mention All-Big South pick after hitting .316 and leading the club with a .531 slugging percentage, while also ranking second on the team in batting average and driving in key runs. The differentiator here is his impact bat and competitive edge—he homered in three straight Big South games and delivered a grand slam, suggesting a hitter teams can plug in for lineup length and timely damage.
