Alex Koelling brings switch-the-injury-for-upside energy to Miami (OH)'s infield
Alex Koelling enters the 2026 season as a redshirt freshman INF for Miami (OH) after spending 2025 at Ohio State, where he missed the season due to injury; that makes his return a “watch-the-body-language” situation, but his high school résumé pops: a .370 senior line, 39 hits, 32 runs, 26 RBIs, 23 steals, and a 2024 Ohio Division I state title. A left-handed bat with a 6-foot-1 frame and legit speed, he looks like a versatile, athletic infielder who could add sneaky value if the bat and health both show up.
