HITTER OF THE WEEK
Lange Livonius 3B / SS / Juan Diego Catholic, UT / 2026Rankings StateRank: 36 / POS: 4
Lange Livonius was an absolute force at the plate this week, serving as the undisputed engine for a Soaring Eagle offense that outscored opponents 38-4 over a three-game stretch. Livonius turned in a clinical performance, hitting at a staggering .833 clip (5-for-6) while driving in eight runs and scoring six himself. His dominance was headlined by a monster outing against East, where he launched two home runs and accounted for five RBIs in a 9-2 victory. Showing advanced composure and elite power, Livonius finished the week with a massive 1.833 slugging percentage, consistently finding barrels and proving why he is one of the most dangerous middle-of-the-order threats in the 4A classification.

Salmon surrendered zero hits and consistently worked ahead in the count, living in the zone and maintaining elite composure throughout the high-stakes tournament outing.
