Cat Petteys is a middle-infield force and one of UConn’s most dangerous bats
Petteys stands out as a high-impact shortstop whose value goes beyond batting average: UConn lists her with a .775 slugging percentage, .487 on-base percentage, 64 hits, 11 doubles, 2 triples, 22 walks, and 45 runs scored, while D1Softball shows her producing another elite season in 2026 with 21 home runs and a .394 average. Her game profile suggests a true run-generator with extra-base pop, plate discipline, and consistency, which is exactly the kind of infield bat that can change a lineup’s ceiling.
