Mizuno Player of the Week: Week 7


Prep Baseball Alabama Staff

Each week during the high school season, we will be announcing the Mizuno Pitcher and Player of the Week for that particular week. Numerous players across the state continue to put up impressive numbers both as position players and pitchers on the mound. This year, we will be selecting one Pitcher of the Week and one Player of the Week based on nominations from high school coaches across the state. Special thank you to Mizuno for sponsoring both awards this season and for the high school coaches who nominated their players for this award.

Continuing from last year, we will also be highlighting other players from across the state in our Alabama Diamond Notes that we will release each Wednesday. Our Diamond Notes will highlight other players nominated by high school coaches that are deserving of recognition that were not named Mizuno Pitcher or Player of the Week. 

 

Mizuno Week 7 Player of the Week

Kennith Dalton Jackson 3B / Florala, AL / 2025

Jackson earned Player of the Week honors after a big week both at the plate and on the mound for Florala, who just wrapped up another area championship in Class 1A. Being a staple inside the heart of the order for the Wildcats, the uncommitted junior was a big-time run-producer this past week going 9-for-12 (.750 batting average) at the plate. Out of those nine hits on the week, he hit five doubles, two home runs, and drove in nine runs while scoring five times and stealing a base. That didn't seem to be enough for Jackson, as he was also dominant on the mound throwing five innings and allowing just one hit, no runs, and striking out seven.
