Cal Poly’s Maya Venegas is emerging as a tough, versatile bat behind the plate
In the 2026 season, Maya Venegas has shown real two-way value for Cal Poly: she’s been used at catcher, first base, designated player, and even center field, while delivering timely offense and strong glove work. Her stat line includes a .980 fielding percentage in 49 chances, three outfield assists in throwing out runners, and clutch RBI hits in conference play. She’s not just filling a spot — she brings energy, athletic flexibility, and a gritty, contact-first approach that can help a team in multiple roles.
