Grace Vaughn brings versatility and a high-floor contact profile to ETSU
In the 2026 season, Grace Vaughn has been a depth-and-versatility piece for East Tennessee State, appearing mainly as a pinch hitter, pinch runner, and at second base rather than as a full-time middle-of-the-order bat. Her season line on ETSU’s cumulative stats page shows limited production so far, but her value is in roster flexibility: a 5'10" infielder who can move around defensively and give the Buccaneers options late in games. ETSU’s roster bio also notes she was a four-time softball and volleyball letterwinner and Fayette County Female Athlete of the Year, which hints at a competitive, multi-sport foundation.
