Drew McConnell is giving Evansville a high-contact spark in the middle infield
In the 2026 season, McConnell has flashed a real impact bat and steady run production for Evansville, highlighted by an 11-for-16 week in mid-April that earned him Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Week honors and a four-hit game at Cal Baptist, his first career four-hit performance. He’s the kind of infielder coaches love: competitive, fast-improving, and capable of driving the ball in big spots while also creating pressure on the bases. If you want a middle-infield bat with momentum, toughness, and some sneaky pop, McConnell fits.
