SALISBURY, MARYLAND — Delmarva Shorebirds athletic trainer Maggie Hunt was named the Carolina League Athletic Trainer of the Year for the 2026 season, per a Sept. 28 announcement from the Professional Baseball Athletic Trainers Society carried on MiLB.com.
PBATS President Nick Kenney released the Minor League Athletic Trainers of the Year Awards for each of the 14 leagues, plus coordinator honors. Hunt is listed for the Carolina League under the Baltimore Orioles organization — the Shorebirds’ parent club — among the peer-selected winners.
Shorebirds field-staff notes from February list Hunt in her third season on Delmarva and second as the club’s athletic trainer, after earlier Orioles stops as a Delmarva assistant and Florida Complex League trainer. She holds athletic-training degrees from Methodist University and West Chester University of Pennsylvania.
PBATS said winners are selected by peers based on contributions to player health, professionalism within their organization, and commitment to outstanding player care. Hunt is Delmarva’s athletic trainer at Arthur W. Perdue Stadium. PBATS will present its overall Minor League Athletic Trainer of the Year and Staff of the Year honors at the MLB Winter Meetings in San Diego.
