Cole Johnson gives Austin Peay a middle-order bat with real pop and steady on-base skills
In the 2026 season, Austin Peay infielder Cole Johnson started all 55 games and posted a .276 average with a .403 on-base percentage, .507 slugging percentage, and 12 home runs, showing the kind of consistent power production that plays anywhere in the lineup[1][4]. He also added 9 doubles, 1 triple, and 49 RBI, and his profile suggests a durable, everyday bat who can handle first base or DH work while bringing run-producing punch rather than empty contact[1][6].
