The Lootpress Player of the Week Award sponsored by Dutch Miller, has arrived in the Kanawha Valley!
Below are the candidates for the first week of the prep baseball season. Voting will close Wednesday, April 3 at 11:59 P.M. The fan vote will be used in the event of a tie. VOTES ALONE DO NOT DETERMINE THE WINNER. There are also changes to the Player of the Week voting pertaining to the top overall vote getter that you can read about here.
If the top vote getter has already won a community choice poll, the next leading vote getter who has not won will be named that week’s community choice winner.
In order for a player to be eligible or nominated, the stat keeper or coach must allow us access to their GameChanger statistics. The email to allow is tommybragg@gmail.com.
