Iona Gaels Infielder Closes 4-Year Tenure with MAAC Championship Run
Kenadie Gonzalez, a 5'5" right-handed first baseman for the Iona Gaels, concluded her four-year career in the 2026 season by helping the team secure 27 wins and a return to the MAAC Championship game. Her differentiators include a fierce intensity and a versatile athletic background, having played four years of varsity volleyball and earned three-time All-Conference honors at South Windsor High School. While her 2026 batting average was .229 with 8 hits, her .357 on-base percentage and 4 RBIs in 19 games reveal a player who excels in getting on base and contributing in key moments. Gonzalez is a high-fit prospect for teams valuing grit, defensive reliability at first base, and a player who brings championship-level intensity without a history of major injuries.
