Carlee Bubela brings two-way depth and late-game poise for Sam Houston
In the 2026 season, Carlee Bubela gave Sam Houston real two-way flexibility: she logged 16 pitching appearances, struck out 10 across 32 innings, earned a win and a save, and also contributed as a position player with a hit in five games. The Bearkats’ signing notes describe her as a standout prep player and a versatile P/1B with a strong travel-ball résumé, while her family’s Sam Houston ties add a little extra Bearkat DNA. She looks like the kind of gritty, adaptable utility piece coaches love: not flashy, but useful, competitive, and built for big-moment reps.
