Kaneohe native Miquela “Q” Leopoldo brings power and leadership to the Sharks’ lineup as a first baseman and catcher. A four-year letterwinner at Kamehameha Schools – Kapalama, she helped lead her team to the 2023 ILH Division I Championship while earning All-State Honorable Mention and All-ILH honors. Leopoldo was also part of the 2021 USA Preps West Coast World Series Championship team.

Before joining HPU, she competed at the University of Hawai‘i at Hilo under head coach Aisha Sueda. She previously earned her Associate of Arts degree from HPU, returning to continue her academic and athletic journey close to home. Off the field, Leopoldo enjoys listening to music, stargazing, and spending time by the beach. She chose HPU for its strong academics, supportive staff, and proximity to family.
