Albany ace Dylan Banner carved up the America East in 2026
Dylan Banner finished the 2026 season as Albany’s workhorse right-hander and the America East Pitcher of the Year, leading the Great Danes with 13 starts, three complete games, 80.0 innings, a 3.94 ERA and 63 strikeouts. He brings size, strike-throwing and real bat-missing ability, plus the kind of durability coaches love from a Friday-night starter. The eye-catcher is the command: he limited walks well enough to post one of the league’s best strikeout-to-walk profiles. If you want a polished, innings-eating starter with ace DNA, Banner is your guy.
