Jack Kelley is Villanova’s steady, strike-throwing RHP who just earned BIG EAST Pitcher of the Week
Kelley is trending as one of Villanova’s most reliable arms in 2026: he was named BIG EAST Pitcher of the Week after a six-inning, seven-strikeout shutout against Charleston Southern, showing the ability to miss bats while limiting free passes. Beyond the box score, his profile suggests a starter’s stamina and poise—he has prior Division I work at Akron and has handled both rotation and workload demands. He looks like a fit for teams wanting a durable right-hander who competes, pounds the zone, and can give quality innings when the game matters.
