Eli Payne (2026 – Utility – USC Sumter Commit) @EPayne09

Payne is the definition of grit.

After battling injuries last season, he’s back — and ready to cause chaos every time he steps on the field.

Speed. Toughness. Leadership.

Whether it’s swiping bags or shutting down hitters, he’s the Swiss Army knife every team needs.

USC Sumter got themselves a gamer.

[Jarrod Payne @PayneDWDaniel]

Great seeing @P1Jasean today! #FilltheTank

Eli Payne (‘26 SC) hammers this one out to center for a triple. Shows off the power a bit here; collects an RBI. #USCSumter Commit #FallSEElite @PG_Coastal

Enjoyed competing today at East Cobb. Working on improving my command and adding cutter (1st pitch in 2nd video) and sinker to my arsenal.
