NC Player of the Week: March 11-16, 2024
March 19, 2024
Throughout the 2024 season Prep Baseball Scouts will be working to track and see as many games and players as possible. Each week the scouting staff will post game coverage, scout blog, player video and more. This will be done in conjunction with Inside the Box, a daily scoreboard with select game and player highlights.
Through all the work to cover high school baseball in North Carolina, our scouting staff will be naming a player and pitcher of the week, each week of the high school regular season. Along with all the games Prep Baseball Scouts will see, cover, and examine, high school coaches will also be able to pass along information on how their players performed. On Friday of each week, this form, will be sent to the high school coaches in North Carolina. All players that are submitted will be considered for Player and Pitcher of the Week.
Coaches can also email Brandon Hall at [email protected] to submit player nominations.
March 11 - 16, 2024 Player of the Week
Morehead continued to roll last week, going 3-0 with 2 conference wins. Offensively the Panthers posted some very big numbers, averaging 13 runs per game. They were paced by their leadoff hitter, and this week's North Carolina Player of the Week, senior RHP/INF Anderson Nance. Nance hit in the leadoff spot in all three games, collecting 9 hits and a walk in 12 plate appearances. While hitting .818 Nance scored 7 runs and collected 8 RBI's.
Nance, the Panther ace also worked 4.2 innings, collecting 13 strikeouts in a win. The strikeouts moved him to the top of the all-time Rockingham County strikout list. He also moved to the top of the Rockingham County stolen base list, swiping 4 last week.
Congratulation to Anderson Nance.
