Hunter Sute<\/a>, who has been the Jaspers’ primary designated hitter since arriving in Riverdale, was recognized as the All-MAAC Second Team Designated Hitter selection after posting a .331 average in 39 games started and 42 appearances.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the Alabama transfer and catcher crossed the plate 31 times, added 49 hits, 13 doubles, two triples, four round-trippers, 31 RBIs, and eclipsed his .405 slugging total to finish 2026 with a .527 clip and a .415 on-base percentage.<\/p>\n

This season, the Tuscaloosa, Alabama, product posted the best individual game of his career with a five-hit performance, three doubles, one triple, four runs scored, and five RBIs in the commanding victory over the Columbia Lions on Wednesday, March 25.<\/p>\n

“Both earned this through relentless work, consistency, and the way they competed for this program all season long.<\/p>\n

Penultimately, Sute posted a six-game hitting streak three games into the season, spanning the month of February into March, before ending the campaign with back-to-back two-hit games in efforts against the Jaspers’ crosstown rival, the Iona Gaels, on May 15 and 16.<\/p>\n
