Big-game, ground-ball righty with a winning edge
In the 2026 season, Lauppe emerged as Arizona State’s dependable No. 2 pitcher, going 14-4 with a 3.59 ERA over 121 innings and earning Big 12 Pitcher of the Week honors after a 3-0 stretch with a 1.50 ERA[1][12]. Her calling card is poise under pressure: she routinely limits walks, works deep enough to matter, and leans on ground balls to escape jams—she induced 10+ ground-ball outs in a game six times in 2026[1][4]. If you want a competitive, innings-eating right-hander with postseason-tested toughness, she’s your kind of fit[5][12].
