Each week during the high school season, we will be announcing the Mizuno Pitcher and Player of the Week for that particular week. Numerous players across the state continue to put up impressive numbers both as position players and pitchers on the mound. This year we will be selecting one Pitcher of the Week and one Player of the Week based on nominations from high school coaches across the state. 

Thank you to the many high school coaches that sent in nominations this week.  

Let's take a look at the Mizuno Player and Pitcher of the Week for Week 9 (Apr 14-Apr 20).
