Lexie Griffin is a steady, high-contact senior catcher who helped drive EIU’s 2026 OVC title run
Lexie Griffin stands out as a dependable veteran catcher for Eastern Illinois, logging 54 appearances and 52 starts in the 2026 season while helping anchor a team that won its third straight Ohio Valley Conference regular-season title. Her biggest differentiator is timely offense: she earned OVC Player of the Week after going 7-for-9 with three walks and an .833 on-base percentage over a key weekend, and she’s been described as stepping up in pressure moments. If you want a composed, experienced backstop with proven run-production and plate discipline, she looks like a strong fit.
