Ben Pulliam is Longwood’s line-drive spark plug with extra-base pop
In the 2026 season, Longwood outfielder Ben Pulliam emerged as one of the team’s most productive freshmen, batting .298 with 19 doubles, 2 triples, 4 home runs, and 16 steals across 52 games while earning All-Big South Freshman Team honors[3]. His calling card is impact contact with speed: he can punish mistakes to the gaps, turn singles into pressure, and create offense in multiple ways, including a stretch run that featured a four-hit game and a five-run performance[2][3]. For a team, he looks like a high-energy, high-upside fit who brings juice, versatility, and competitive edge[2][3].
