Mason Ault is giving ETSU steady pop behind the plate
In the 2026 season, ETSU catcher Mason Ault has shown real run-producing ability and timely-hit value, including a two-run single against Marist and a key go-ahead homer against VMI, while also handling the catching load for a Buccaneers team that has leaned on his bat in big spots[1][2][4]. He looks like a contact-plus-power backstop with clutch instincts, and the fact that he’s already delivering in pressure moments suggests a player who can fit on a team that values toughness, situational hitting, and defensive reliability.
