Joey Pagano is the Hawks’ steady senior spark plug — contact, clutch, and on-base machine
In the 2026 season, Joey Pagano has been one of Saint Joseph’s most complete bats, hitting .324 with a .434 on-base percentage, 16 doubles, 8 home runs, and 49 RBI while ranking near the top of the team in multiple offensive categories. He also delivered big in pressure spots, including a 4-for-6, seven-RBI game against La Salle and a .625 average in the Atlantic 10 Championship, which earned All-Championship honors. The appeal here is the combination of polish, toughness, and “show up when it matters” energy — a strong fit for a lineup that wants mature, high-approach production.
