The West Coast League Player of the Week and Pitcher of the Week, as announced by league president Brian Sloan, are Mississippi State sophomore outfielder Hunter Vansau of the Victoria HarbourCats and Omaha-Nebraska sophomore pitcher Cal Hehnke of the Kelowna Falcons for the week of July 3-9.

Vansau, who will be a junior next spring, went 11-for-21 (.524) for the week with 8 runs scored, a double, triple, 3 stolen bases, 3 homers and 12 RBIs. He is hitting .426 for the summer with 4 homers and 18 RBIs, and was selected to represent the North in this year’s WCL All-Star Game.
