Cassidy Morrow, Andrew Stucky and Devin Alvarez earned ACCAC Player of the Week honors

Former Sahuaro standout Cassidy Morrow had 10 hits, five runs and six RBI in 15 at-bats last week to help Eastern Arizona win four games against Pima and Mesa.

Former Canyon del Oro standout Andrew Stucky had five hits, three runs and three RBI in 10 at-bats last week to help Pima go 3-1 in four games against Chandler-Gilbert and Scottsdale.

Former Sahuarita standout Devin Alvarez had eight hits and five runs in 16 at-bats in four games for Eastern Arizona.

This list will be updated all year in an effort to recognize all former local prep stars who have gone on to win either academic and/or athletic awards at the next level. These are not high school awards but collegiate and professional recognitions. NOT CHAMPIONSHIPS. If you are aware of anything I have missed along the way, please let me know. amoralesmytucson@yahoo.com
