Mason Pike never collected the shiny trophy with the Puyallup Vikings, but he did rack up one the nation's biggest individual honors earlier this week - the Gatorade state high school baseball player of the year.

The Oregon State University signee finished with a 10-1 record and 0.84 earned-run average, striking out 112 batters in 66-plus innings pitched.

With the bat, the state's No. 2 MLB Draft prospect held a .482 batting average with 16 extra-base hits, driving in 28 runs and scoring 39 times in 29 games. He also stole 13 bases.

Pike also holds a 3.90 grade-point average, and is a volunteer youth baseball coach - important off-the-field principles in the selection process.

"Mason Pike is the most well-rounded athlete and competitor I’ve coached in my 30 years of coaching," Puyallup High School coach Marc Wiese said in a released statement.

Pike became Puyallup's first Gatorade state winner since Luke Heimlich in 2014.
