Jacobi Coombs brings glove-first grit and steady infield upside to Portland State
In the 2026 season, Jacobi Coombs showed she can help the Vikings with defense, versatility, and toughness rather than flashy box-score noise: Portland State listed her as an infielder, and her recruiting profile called her a primary shortstop with utility value, plus a right-handed arm. Portland State coach Cheyenne McWhorter highlighted her as a gifted, steady infielder who makes big-time plays and brings grit, while her background includes three Golden Glove awards, a high-school MVP nod in 2024, and Academic All-Big Sky honors in 2026.
