Madison Vrastil is Valpo’s spark-plug bat with extra-base punch
In the 2026 season, Madison Vrastil emerged as one of Valparaiso’s most dangerous table-setters, hitting .364 with 64 hits, 39 runs, 19 RBI and 22 stolen bases while also flashing pop with a first collegiate home run. She’s a left-handed hitter with catcher/utility versatility, and Valpo’s coverage repeatedly highlighted her ability to catch fire in bunches—multiple hits in 20 games and several big run-scoring outings. The appeal is the combo: contact, speed, and adaptability, plus a competitor who seems to play with a little edge. She looks like a strong fit for teams wanting lineup pressure and defensive flexibility.
