Katie Geydoshek gives Loyola Chicago a high-upside freshman arm with real swing-and-miss stuff
In the 2026 season, Loyola Chicago freshman pitcher Katie Geydoshek has shown both growth and upside: she earned Atlantic 10 Rookie of the Week honors after striking out 13 in 8.2 innings with a 0.81 ERA, and she finished the season with 51 strikeouts, which ranked 10th in the league. Her broader freshman line included a 4.51 ERA over 85.1 innings, so the profile is still developing, but the pitchability and punchout potential are obvious. She’s the kind of arm a team can build around if it wants competitive fire and future ceiling.
