Cal Poly’s record-setting closer with late-inning swagger
In the 2026 season, Nick Bonn became the nation’s saves leader and shattered Cal Poly’s single-season saves record with 17, finishing with a 3.44 ERA, 50 strikeouts, and a Stopper of the Year finalist nod. He wasn’t just piling up numbers—he owned the biggest moments, including a perfect closing run in the postseason and a 14-save mark that tied the Mustang record before he broke it. The differentiator is electric late-inning stuff and a fastball that reportedly touched 100 mph, making him a bullpen weapon teams can trust when the game gets spicy.
