State Stat Stars of the Week

NorCal/SoCal Players of the Week
Although one honoree came close, there were no entries for the Cal-Hi Sports Online Record Book to track this week, which is one of the things we do for this feature, but we have some exceptional talent, both from some college-bound winners, and an under the radar honoree who is getting statewide recognition.
