George Mason’s do-it-all infield sparkplug
In the 2026 season, Owen Clyne emerged as a premium all-around infielder for George Mason, earning Brooks Wallace Award attention and All-ECAC Shortstop honors while leading the Patriots in key offensive categories early and finishing with strong run production. He brings a contact-plus-power blend, plus impact speed, and the kind of steady, reliable defense that coaches love: he started every game, handled shortstop cleanly, and delivered in big moments, including a walk-off RBI and a team-leading home run total. If a roster needs a high-motor, high-floor middle-infield bat with grit and versatility, Clyne fits the bill.
