Michael Wiseman (White Lake, Mich./Lakeland) was named the Most Valuable Player of the
Marysville Gold Sox, an elite collegiate summer team in California, for the second straight season.
Wiseman batted .340 with three homers, led the team in slugging percentage (.436) and committed just one error all season as the Gold Sox finished 33-13 in the Horizon Air Summer Series, an 11-week competition among teams in the Western United States comprised of the best collegiate student-athletes in the country.
A First Team All-GLIAC and two-time All-Region selection this past spring, Wiseman batted a career-best .376 for the Warriors in 2010, helping the team earn the conference regular-season and tournament championships. He will enter his senior year in 2011 ranked in the top 10 all-time at WSU in 10 different career categories, including third in RBI (143) and fifth in home runs (20), total bases (284) and walks (80).
