Week 3 of the Kentucky high school season saw a player from Central Hardin HS turn in a dominant offensive effort for the week.

Kellen Brandenburg, a junior first baseman, led the Bruins offense by going 8-for-12 with a triple, home run, and 8 RBIs. In addition, Brandenburg drew five walks and scored nine runs during the five game stretch. For the season, the uncommitted right-handed hitter is hitting .433 with 13 RBIs and has struck out just four times while showing the plate discipline to draw 12 walks.

For his outstanding performance on the field, Kellen Brandenburg has been named the Prep Baseball Kentucky Player of The week for March 25-31.
