Addison Smith is a steady, all-around bat for Samford with second-team SoCon credentials
In the 2026 season, Samford utility player Addison Smith emerged as a reliable everyday piece, starting 48 of 49 games and hitting .328 while earning second-team All-SoCon honors; the Bulldogs also noted she “caught fire” in the second half of the season. She brings value beyond the box score as a versatile 5-foot-6 right-handed hitter who can move around the field, put the ball in play, and deliver timely offense—exactly the kind of glue player coaches love because she raises the floor without demanding the spotlight.
