Auburn freshman infielder Delaney Aumua announced via her X account that she plans to enter the transfer portal.
The Livermore, California native made 34 appearances this season for the Tigers. She made 12 starts as the Tigers' designated player, with two starts in right field. Aumua recorded a .593 slugging percentage, 16 hits, four doubles, a .381 on-base percentage, four homers, and nine runs. Defensively, she totaled 20 putouts for Auburn.
Her debut for the Tigers came in the 3-11 loss to North Florida to open the 2026 season. She collected her first home run of the season against No. 9 UCLA, which was the solo run for the Tigers in that matchup.
As a recruit out of Granada High School, she was seen by Extra Inning Softball as the No. 21 prospect in the country. Aumua earned two East Bay Athletics League Offensive Player of the Year awards (2023, 2025), along with being named NCS Player of the Year in 2023.
Aumua will now enter the NCAA Transfer Portal with three years of eligibility left in her college career. She joins pitcher SJ Geurin by entering the transfer portal following the season.
