THIS WEEK’S ‘PREP BALLPLAYER’ FINALISTS

Matheny was a major contributor in the Cardinals’ three wins this past week. The senior recorded eight hits – five singles, a double, a triple and a home run – and had seven RBIs. He also scored five runs and stole four bases – one being a straight steal of home.

Kody Milton, Jr., RHP/INF, Severna Park
Four games weren’t an issue for Milton and the Falcons. The junior belted two, two-run homers to open the week against Old Mill in an 8-6 win and added another the next day against Northeast. He recorded a combined six RBIs and scored three runs in those three at-bats. On Wednesday, the right-hander pitched a scoreless seventh and scored a run against Chesapeake to clinch the 3-2 victory. Milton’s week ended Thursday against North County, when he knocked in a run in an 8-5 win.

The right-hander then registered three hits – one being a double – three RBIs and a run scored in a 10-8 win over Perryville the next day. Schneider capped off the week with two hits, one RBI and a run against Bo Manor on Thursday.
