School: Clovis East

Class: Junior

Position: Outfield

He's qualified because: Fifth-leading vote getter in All-Tri-River Athletic Conference balloting produced the section's most impressive offensive statistics, not only given the competition but the fact the leadoff hitter had minimal protection.

He hit .505 with 54 hits, 26 runs, 31 RBIs, 17 doubles and eight home runs for an .888 slugging percentage.

Included was a .440 average in the TRAC with three homers and .700 slugging.

"No player at Clovis East has even come close to what Isaiah accomplished this year offensively," says Timberwolves coach Rigo Ledezma, not dismissing the production of recent greats such as Matt Jensen.
