Maddie Ratcheson is Princeton’s red-hot rookie bat behind the plate
Ratcheson has quickly become a difference-maker for Princeton in 2026, earning Ivy Rookie of the Week three times while hitting .600 with a homer against Dartmouth and .700 in a sweep at Harvard, where she slugged 1.000 and helped clinch the Tigers’ fifth straight Ivy title. Her value goes beyond the box score: she brings middle-of-the-order pop, clutch RBI production, and the versatility to catch or play the infield, which makes her a strong fit for teams that want a competitive, high-impact young bat with upside.
