Ella Harrod is Cornell’s steady-gloved, contact-first spark plug in the infield
In the 2025 season, Cornell’s Ella Harrod was a second-team All-Ivy shortstop who led the Big Red with a .333 batting average, 43 hits, and 84 assists, while also bringing top-of-the-order value with smart baserunning and reliable defense. Her profile screams consistency: she rarely strikes out, handles the shortstop load, and has shown year-over-year offensive growth, including more extra-base pop and run production. If a team wants a composed, high-IQ infield bat who can set the tone and make the routine play look easy, Harrod absolutely merits a look.
