State Softball/Baseball Players of Week
As the old saying goes “all good things must come to an end” and for this week’s State Baseball-Softball Players of the Week this will be the final installment for the 2024-25 school year. Despite the fact there are only a handful of teams either still alive and competing in the CIF Regional Playoffs, and […]
State Baseball/Softball Players of Week
For this week, which will be the next to last group of picked players for the 2024-25 school year, we don’t have any entries for the Cal-Hi Sports Online Record Book. That is something this features tracks, but despite the funnel narrowing with not a lot of teams left in action, we fulfilled the second […]
State Softball/Baseball Players of Week
It gets tricky in these last weeks of the school year as we avoid choosing anyone who might be playing his/her final game on the day they are honored. We still can find very strong candidates with that restriction and this week have found them in San Diego and Sherman Oaks for Southern California plus […]
State Baseball/Softball Players of Week
For this week’s five honorees we didn’t have any entries for the Cal-Hi Sports Online Record Book to track, which is one of the goals of this feature, but the other goal of finding diamonds in the rough for statewide honors who might only get local recognition was more than satisfied. Five instead of four […]
State Softball/Baseball Players of Week
Have we ever had one week in the history of this feature (more than 10 years on this site) in which two of our honorees both threw back-to-back no-hitters? We’re not sure. All four of this week’s featured players did some amazing things and we’re pleased to bring their stories to a bigger audience. They […]
State Baseball/Softball Players of Week
The two goals of this weekly feature are to track potential entries in the Cal-Hi Sports Online Record Book and to uncover and identify some hidden talent and diamonds in the rough for statewide recognition that might only get local kudos. While we didn’t have any performances that made the record book, we had two […]
State Softball/Baseball Players of Week
One of the four honorees this week had a performance nominated by our own Harold Abend during the middle of a move from Petaluma to Orange County. Another is a younger sister of the quarterback from last season’s state/national championship football team. The four are from Petaluma and San Bruno in Northern California and Rancho […]
State Baseball/Softball Players of Week
State record implications are there for two of the four we’re honoring this week, but considering the competition involved it was one of the other honorees who perhaps made the biggest impact. Our four winners are from Moreno Valley and Lakewood in Southern California and then it’s Livingston and Loomis for Northern California. We hope […]
State Softball/Baseball Players of Week
It’s never easy to come up with these four honorees each week and this week we even waited for Monday afternoon games to be played before finalizing two of the winning names. As usual, most of those who gained the final nod have accomplishments both with bat in hand or with ball leaving the hand […]
State Baseball/Softball Players of Week
With half the team that collaborates on producing the State Baseball-Softball Players of the Week feature unavailable due to Cal-Hi Sports co-founder Mark Tennis being on the road, we were left to our own devices to research and pick the winners, so we put out a call on social media for nominations, and thankfully hit […]
