Makayla Bess is the kind of infielder every coach wants on their roster—gritty, fast, and fearless. A right-handed thrower and left-handed hitter, Bess brings a dynamic edge to both sides of the game. Her speed is a constant threat on the basepaths, where she racks up stolen bases with ease and has instincts well beyond her years. Whether she’s laying down a bunt or stretching a single into a double, Makayla plays with relentless energy and isn’t afraid to get dirty to make a play. Her aggressive style on the field and versatility make her one of the most exciting prospects to watch in the 2027 class.
