Newark Catholic baseball player Miller Hutchison is the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center Athlete of the Week for June 9-15, the final such honoree of the 2024-25 school year.
Hutchison struck out 10 in 3⅔ innings of one-hit relief and went 3 for 4 with two runs scored in a 6-4 win over Tiffin Calvert in a Division VII state semifinal.
He received 35.6% of the vote, edging Olentangy baseball player Rocco Bucci, who received 32.8%.
Bucci pitched six innings in a Division I state semifinal, allowing one run on three hits and four walks with four strikeouts as Olentangy defeated West Chester Lakota West 3-1.
Also nominated were Licking Valley baseball’s Evan Lichtenauer and Evan Roberts, New Albany baseball’s Cam Simmons and Olentangy baseball’s Cameron Birch.
The Athlete of the Week will resume in August.
