Each week during the high school season, we will be announcing the Prep Baseball KS Player of the Week. We will rely on submissions from high school coaches and others by way of email ([email protected]) or DM on X (twitter). Nominations should include player name, grad year, position, and stat line. KS HS Player of the Week will be released every Tuesday after noon.

Thank you to each high school coach who submitted a nomination for this week's awards.
