Ayanna Mears brings contact bat and RBI upside to NC A&T’s infield
In the 2026 season, Ayanna Mears has been a productive sophomore infielder for North Carolina A&T, hitting .264 with 3 home runs and 24 RBI, which points to a hitter who can drive in runs as well as keep innings alive. Her profile suggests a useful right-handed bat with enough pop to matter in the middle or lower-middle of the order, and game notes show she’s delivered RBI singles in key moments. For a team, that makes her a solid fit as a steady, competitive run producer with upside rather than a flashy all-or-nothing bat.[4][9][6]
