Avary Makarewicz brings power, patience, and catcher grit to UT Martin
Makarewicz enters the 2026 season as an OVC Player to Watch and a tough, high-impact catcher for UT Martin, known for middle-of-the-order power, a patient approach, and run production that shows up in big moments[3][4]. In 2026, she has already delivered multiple multi-hit games and timely extra-base damage, including a 3-RBI homer game against Saint Louis and a walk-off RBI hit against Western Illinois[2][8]. She also adds real value behind the plate, having been praised for her defense and throwing out 11 runners in her first Skyhawk season[3][6].
