The SCCBL announced that outfielder Ino Patron (Long Beach State) has been awarded Player of the Week for the week of 7/7 – 7-14.

Patron put up video game numbers this week hitting .588 (10/17), with one home run and eight runs batted in. The slugger also had four doubles and chipped in one stolen base. This is the first time the outfielder has been awarded Player of the Week in 2014. He joins Jake Howeth (Texas Wesleyan University) and Hayden Rogers (BYU) as the only POWER players to earn an accolade this summer.
