Aiyana Coleman is Texas State’s power-and-patience engine in the heart of the lineup
In the 2025 season, Coleman turned into a star for Texas State, winning Sun Belt Player and Newcomer of the Year after hitting .421 with 17 home runs, 55 RBI, and a program-record .893 slugging percentage. She brings loud left-side thump, elite strike-zone discipline, and the kind of walk rate that forces pitchers to pitch to her—or pay for it. Even in 2026, she’s still drawing attention as the Sun Belt’s preseason Player of the Year, which says plenty about her value. If you want an infielder who changes games with one swing and one plate appearance, she’s your type.
