Four student-athletes captured the 2025 MaxPreps/NFCA National High School Spring Player of the Week honors on Monday afternoon. They are being recognized for their outstanding play during the week of March 10-16.
Connor earned the East Region's first honor of the season, picking up two wins for the Invaders. She did struggle a bit with her control in the circle, walking six over seven innings and two appearances, but struck out 20 over that same span. She didn't allow a hit in four innings against Greater Nanticoke Area on Wednesday and held Carbondale Area hitless over three innings on Saturday.
Gracie Hebert -

Hebert had four hits in both contests for the Tigers.
Ava Stuewe -
Fredericksburg (TX)In the South Central, Stuewe was dominant over three appearances for the Billies. She struck out 11 and walked one in a 5-0 win over Lake Travis on Saturday. In two her two earlier games, Stuewe fanned four over 1.2 innings against Gonzales on Tuesday and six in two innings versus Bandera on Friday.

Amaya Johnson -
Mountlake Terrace (WA)Johnson was the choice in the West Region following a week in which she was a perfect 6-for-6 at the plate with a double, four homers, four walks, 14 RBI and no strikeouts.
