Aynalem Zoet brings contact pop and clutch utility for JMU
In the 2026 season, James Madison freshman INF Aynalem Zoet hit .263 in 15 games with five hits, two doubles, one RBI, and a .368 on-base percentage, showing a compact contact profile that can add sneaky value in the middle-to-bottom of the lineup. JMU’s signing notes point to a high-upside, multi-sport competitor with captain experience, a .568 high-school average, and 11 homers in 2024, which says she’s got both touch and juice. If you want a coachable, versatile infielder with some bat-to-ball grit and upward-arrow energy, she’s a very reasonable fit.
